Generally, you take Language during your Junior year, and then Literature during your Senior Year. The Language test tests you understanding of the English language (duh!), and Literature, your reading comprehension/writing abilities (basically the multiple choice on the test is the same as the critical reading on the SAT)

The Lang test is easier to get a 5 on, but the Lit test is more respectful…

Look at your fav college’s AP policy, and decide which test will give you credit…if you’re good enough at English you could probably take both test without even taking the class…

Don’t know about your school, but at my school, Lang was a JOKE!!! But they didn’t allow students to take both at the same time for some reason…

If you have to pick one, go with Lit, it MUCH harder, but MUCH MORE fun…
