I've been taking a few SATII Lit practice tests and have noticed that the curve is very generous in Kaplan tests (Raw Score of 49= 750 !!!) Can I trust my performance on these tests. Is Kaplan good for Lit? Should I get another book?
I'm freaking out coz I've got my test this Saturday!!!!

I averaged 700 on kaplan -> 760 official subject test book -> 770 real test

^^^That is really reassuring. But, is the curve really that generous in Lit???

Have you tried an official CB test? There are three available in total, one in the big "study guide for the SAT sunject tests" and two another in the "study guide for literature and United states history". These are the best tests out there. If you can, try checking your public library for any of these books and try one of the tests.

According to the big book, a raw score of about 59 nets you an 800, 52 is a 750, 46 is a 700, and 34 is a 600. 49 is about 720. So yeah, the the kaplan curve looks a little bit too generous.

Malfunction, can you give me a link to the book with 2 lit tests you mentioned? I cannot seem to find that one...

Oh! Actually, I messed up Literature for World History!
The book contains two World History and two US History tests, not Literature. Apologies!
But you can at least still try the big book, even though it has only one.
