The most important thing you can do to be successful in really any English class, but especially so in this one, is to genuinely try to connect with the material. A lot of the reading that you'll do in this class is actually very profound, and many of the books offer some serious food for thought. For me, personally, I was really able to connect with books like The Catcher in the Rye, and I think that doing so both enhanced my enjoyment of the class and my success in it.
The work we do in class is collected at the end of the unit, so if you complete those and show effort on it, they will often balance out the test grade. If you do the classwork on time and turn it in, you will be okay. The study guide covers everything that will be on the test.
