Advanced Placement Latin Literature (also AP Latin Lit) was one of two examinations (the other being AP Latin) offered by the College Board's Advanced Placement Program for high school students to earn college credit for a college-level course in Latin literature. Due to low numbers of students taking AP Latin Literature, it was discontinued after the 2008–09 year.〔 CollegeBoard. ''Important Changes: 2009-10'', 2008.()〕 The AP Latin exam is now the sole Latin exam offered by the College Board. ==Material tested== The AP Latin Literature exam was designed to test students' knowledge of a range of classical Latin literature, as opposed to the AP Latin: Vergil examination, which focuses almost exclusively on Virgil's Aeneid. The course itself followed one of three different curricula, each focusing on a different pair of authors: Catullus-Cicero, Catullus-Horace, and Catullus-Ovid. For each syllabus, students were expected to be able to read, translate, interpret, and analyze selected poems by Catullus as well as selected writings of the secondary author. All students were expected to be familiar with the following poems (approximately 800 lines worth) by Catullus: 1-5, 7-8, 10-13, 14a, 22, 30-31, 35-36, 40, 43-46, 49-51, 60, 64 (lines 50-253), 65, 68 (lines 1-40), 69-70, 72, 76-77, 84-87, 96, 101, 109, and 116. Students who chose to study Cicero as their secondary author read the entire contents of ''Pro Archia Poeta Oratio'' and Sections 17-23 and 100-104 from ''De Amicitia''. It was also suggested that students read the entire English translation of ''De Amicitia''. Students who chose to study Horace read the following ''Odes'': 1, 5, 9, 11, 13, 22-25, and 37-38 from Book 1; 3, 7, 10, and 14 from Book 2; 1, 9, 13, and 30 from Book 3; and 7 from Book 4. They also read 1.9 from his ''Sermones''. Students who chose to study Ovid read the following stories from his ''Metamorphoses'': Apollo and Daphne (lines 452-567 from Book 1), Pyramus and Thisbe (lines 55-166 from Book 4), Daedalus and Icarus (lines 183-235 from Book 8), Baucis and Philemon (lines 616-724 from Book 8), and Pygmalion (lines 283-297 from Book 10). They must also read 1.1, 1.3, 1.9, 1.11, 1.12, and 3.15 from his ''Amores''.〔College Board AP. ''Latin: Vergil, Latin Literature Course Description'', pg. 29.
