Hi folks, I'm deep in my AP Lit revision and I realized that I learn a lot from reading model essays. Does anyone have recommendations on where I can find some of these? Bonus points if they're related to prose analysis, as I'm working on that section. Thanks in advance!
One place you can find examples of AP Literature essays is the College Board's website. They've published samples of high-scoring student responses for various Free Response Questions, including Prose Analysis. These essays come directly from actual exams and are scored by AP graders, so you know they're reliable.
Another valuable resource is your AP Literature textbook or study guide, if you are using one. They often include sample essays and break them down to show what makes them effective.
Lastly, if you're looking for even more practice, consider asking your AP Lit teacher for additional resources. They might have collections of student essays from previous years or additional sources they've found helpful in the past.
