AP English 12 (Literature and Composition)
Course Description
Along with a love of literature, the successful AP student must have ample time to devote to the course. Advanced Placement English is, simply, a course in reading and writing at an advanced level. The course requires students to read closely some demanding works of prose fiction, both lyric and dramatic poetry, and to write graceful and well-structured analyses about them. We will also study British literature, vocabulary, and practice for the multiple-choice portion of the AP Exam.
