No correlation. My daughter did better in Lit test than CR. I think she was unlucky with the CR subject on the SAT I test day. She scored nearly 800 for Lit. She loves poem, literature so it's probably natural for her to do well.

Could anyone recommend a lit II prep book?

Try this. I don't know if it helps my daughter, but I got D this book because someone from this forum who got 800 suggested it.

D had 790 on CR and on SAT II Lit.

I got 800 in both CR/Lit...but Lit does have a rough curve. I don't know anyone who got higher than 740 on Lit even though they had 780+ CR.

It seems intuitive to me that someone who does well on one would do well on the other - at their core they're both reading comprehension, after all.

I got a 760 on CR and 790 on Lit, so no statistical significance there, especially since I took the former last march and the latter the following November. I thought both were pretty darn easy, but the Lit especially.

I got a 730 on SAT I CR, and I just took a practice lit test and got a 790 (it was a PR test). I signed up for it going, "Oh, man, this is going to be easy" but reading these, I'm wondering if that was a fluke?

For those of you who read and write a lot and are really good with grammar, what was tough about the Lit SATII? And is the curve in Princeton Review (790 for around 3 wrong) totally off?

well, i'm taking it this march so i'll come back and give my reactions (800 CR)

my friend took it last june (she's a writing genius) and got a 780ish, I think, and a 750 on the CR. I remember that CR was 30-50 less than Lit, but she is probably going to be a poetry major :/
