You’re finished reviewing for the AP Exam, so now it is time to step back and look at literature and its purposes beyond an exam. It’s often easy to forget in an English class that literature (and all of its various potential forms) was mainly created for one reason: to entertain. Watch the video below to rediscover literature beyond the exam.

Final Thoughts

To conclude this course, we have focused upon not only the purpose of literature, but on your own personal interests and where you might go with those interests for future individualized study. Remember as you take the AP English Literature Exam or any college level English course that understanding of not only what the author is saying, but how and why she made the choices that she did will not only lead to higher scores, but more appreciation and understanding.
