<p>D can take AP Eng. Lang. or an English course given at the high school but taken for credit at a rinky-dink state college. Assuming an excellent grade, which looks better to a school like MIT?</p>
<p>AP English language in this case.</p>
<p>In general, the college course only looks better if it is at a higher level than an AP at the high school (Like AP Physics B vs. Multivariable calculus or Calculus-based physics). Personally, I have decided to probably not take an AP English course but probably one of the exams.</p>
