My Areas of Weakness as an AP Literature Student

So far as an AP Literature student, I have noticed a few areas of weakness that need to be fixed in order for me to succeed not only in the class and on the AP exam but also in aiding my understanding of various pieces of literature. 
One of the things that I need to improve upon is my study skills. Although I do put forth the time when I need to, I do not make a habit of studying for English every single night. This is caused in part by my time management. With 4 APs, my workload is immense so I am focused only on what is due the next day. When I am given the rare gift of a light workload, I focus more on classes that need to pulled up higher. However, I should still use 5 or 10 minutes to go over what I lear each day. 
Another thing that I need to improve upon is my analysis and discussion. Although I consider myself to be decent at analysis, I am not excellent, and excellent is where I want to be. I think to improve this, I just have to get more practice analyzing and looking at the analyses of my fellow classmates and peers. 
These are what I consider to be my biggest weaknesses and things that I am working upon improving.
