In the free-response section, you'll respond to three questions from the following categories with written answers:

Poetry analysis: You will read a passage of poetry and respond to the prompt with a thesis that presents a poetic interpretation backed up by evidence.

Prose fiction analysis: You will read a passage of prose fiction (this may include drama) and respond to the prompt with a thesis that presents a literary interpretation backed up by evidence.

Literary argument: You will be presented with a literary concept or idea and analyze how the literary concept or idea contributes to an interpretation of a literary work. You can choose one from a list of roughly 40 works provided to you or cite another work of prose fiction or drama from your own reading to create an evidence-based argument that responds to the given topic. In responding to Question 3, select a work of fiction that will be appropriate to the question. A general rule is to use a work that is similar in quality to those you have read in your AP class(es).

Macbeth, set primarily in Scotland, mixes witchcraft, prophecy, and murder. Three "Weïrd Sisters" appear to Macbeth and his comrade Banquo after a battle and prophesy that Macbeth will be king and that the descendants of Banquo will also reign. When Macbeth arrives at his castle, he and Lady Macbeth plot to assassinate King Duncan, soon to be their guest, so that Macbeth can become king.

After Macbeth murders Duncan, the king's two sons flee, and Macbeth is crowned. Fearing that Banquo's descendants will, according to the Weïrd Sisters' predictions, take over the kingdom, Macbeth has Banquo killed. At a royal banquet that evening, Macbeth sees Banquo's ghost appear covered in blood. Macbeth determines to consult the Weïrd Sisters again. They comfort him with ambiguous promises.

Another nobleman, Macduff, rides to England to join Duncan's older son, Malcolm. Macbeth has Macduff's wife and children murdered. Malcolm and Macduff lead an army against Macbeth, as Lady Macbeth goes mad and commits suicide.

Macbeth confronts Malcolm's army, trusting in the Weïrd Sisters' comforting promises. He learns that the promises are tricks, but continues to fight. Macduff kills Macbeth and Malcolm becomes Scotland's king.

In 2020, College Board hired some amazing teachers to create instructional videos, called AP Daily Videos, for teachers who were struggling with reduced class time, online teaching, and health struggles. Thousands of teachers used these videos to keep students on a skill-based instructional path in preparation for the AP exam and their college years beyond.

When I began watching the videos, I knew immediately I would need some kind of handout or note sheet to give to my students, whose minds often wandered. I began making them using Canva and sharing them with the AP Lit community through Facebook. They proved so popular that I made notes for each unit, with some help from Susan Barber. We posted them on her site, AP Lit Help, for free access to all teachers.

Unfortunately, in the fall of 2021 these note sheets became unavailable when AP Lit Help went offline. Therefore, I'm posting the notes here so everyone has access to them. These notes are available in both printable PDFs and as interactive Google Slides. See below for the files and links!

Unit 1 - Short Fiction 1

Unit 2 - Poetry I

Unit 3 - Long Fiction or Drama I

Unit 4 - Short Fiction II

Unit 5 - Poetry II
