Basically my original ap lit teacher got pregnant and left us with a long term sub for 2/3rds of the year. The long term sub has assigned almost no homework and we’ve only written an essay or two. We don’t really analyze text deeply at all; it’s basically just a free period for everyone cuz shes extremely lenient and doesn’t care what we do.

I feel good about the MCQ because I already read a lot of literature by myself and the MCQS don’t look too hard but what should I do about the essays?
