***AP English Language and Composition Thread 2017-2018***

Feel free to give any tips throughout the year!!!

I just started, and I honestly can’t stand the writing portion >_<

@southcalgirl Lol same! I just took a pretest and I was lost on the rhetorical analysis XD

So how’s everyone’s AP Lang class going? We are currently writing timed essays on Question Two.

I hate/love Ap Lang. Sometimes I feel whatever I do isn’t good enough and it’s a hard class. Currently, I’m very nervous for the exam. How’s everyone’s else experiences?

Any tips in writing the argumentative essay?

Your first paragraph should be the attention grabber, then your middle should be your weakest point, your last paragraph should be your best point, therefore, you leave he judges off with a good note.

I know that this thread seems dead, but I have a quick question. I recently just took the exam and I believe I may have forgotten to cite my 3rd source. I used the 3rd source but I don’t think that I cited it. I think I would have gotten a 7 otherwise. Does anyone know how much this is going to hurt?

As long as you made your point clearly it shouldn’t take that much off, but you may be looking at a 6.5 depending on the point and source. Basically, it will not bump you down to a 4.
