<p>I can't decide whether to take AP Art History or AP English Literature next year (senior year)
...
any suggestions from people who have taken either or both courses??</p>
<p>I know both are a lot of reading too so would taking them at the same time be suicide? lol</p>
<p>(i'll reply to your most recent post if you reply to this)</p>
<p>what other courses will you be taking? I’m in art history right now (will take lit next year) and it’s a fairly awesome class. Of course, it would be infinitely funner if I had more time to really get into it. There is not a lot of reading in apah. Actually, there is zero reading, except to make little flashcards/notes with pictures for the images.</p>
<p>You should be able to manage both courses, assuming your other classes have decent workloads as well.</p>
<p>In all honesty, I doubt you will need AP Art History for college.
If you want to benefit from an AP class, I’d go with English Lit.</p>
<p>Are you an artist? If not, I see no use in choosing AP Art History, especially not over a class that will improve your overall reading/writing abilities. I’d go for AP Eng Lit a million times over-- but then again, if you’re really invested in the arts, it would make sense to take AP Art History.</p>
<p>Bump ^…</p>
<p>Both, English will improve your writing and Art History will improve your interpreting.
…I wish AP Art History was offered at my school…</p>
