One down, one (two?) to go..

Day 1 of Masters exams is now over. Today was the written test over the general reading list. I went in thinking: 6 questions, pick any three. Since the university doesn't like to share information with us, I found out today that the test was broken into areas. So the test was: Spanish peninsular literature-two questions, pick one; Spanish American lit--two questions, pick one, and Applied Linguistics, two questions, pick one.
This was completely different from how I studied the list. I was under the impression that I was going to be able to pick any questions, the majority of which would be on Spanish peninsular lit. But, I got a little lucky (a lot lucky actually).
The peninsular lit questions was a matter of choosing which one I could answer in more detail--I knew both easily.
The Spanish American section, I was lucky enough to have had one of the books in class last summer, so I answered that question with half of what I could remember from class and half of stuff I made up.
The linguistics section was a total curve ball. One question asked to compare two specific authors and their theories of second language teaching/acquisition. Yeah, right. The other one was discuss the differences between the Spanish used in Madrid and northern Spain vs. the Spanish of Souther Spain and the Americas. Cha-ching!! This was the topic of the past three days in my "Spanish in the World" class this summer.
So, a little bit of luck.

Tomorrow is the test over my chosen area of specialization, which is theater. I am currently conducting a quick cram session on the five Spanish American works on the list--just in case.
I'll find out next week if I passed the written exams. If I pass, then I have to sit for an oral exam over my coursework the past 4 years.
Wish me luck!
