I found this one to be a little more difficult. From reading what other people wrote, I have come to the simple conclusion that our success on this exam, in terms of identifying the passages, will rely on the luck of the draw, more so than our skill level. Let's face it: there's too much to cover in such a short period of time for us to know them all. The best idea may be to just identify common literary stylistic aspects of the works we're studying and listing them and compiling them, in order to walk into the exam with an added sense of security.
I felt a little more apprehensive this time around because I hesitated more at the beginning while identifying each excerpt. I'd be better off, I think, identifying the 9 excerpts I want first, and THEN outlining them very briefly by mentioning the literary period and approximate century. If I know the author I'll go into depth about the aspects I know about. For instance, when I discuss STYLE, I'll mention that James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, for example, are known for their experimental writing styles, which typify the twentieth century Modern literary period ("Stream of consciousness"). I think that this would work better for me if I employed this strategy on the actual exam, rather than just tackling a question without surveying the test as a whole to start off. I didn't do that this time around, which has made me rethink my approach for the actual exam. I hope it works.
