English Language or English Literature?

<p>Which one holds higher prestige? Its not exactly layed out in order by name, such as with Calc. AB and BC, Computer Science A and AB.</p>

<p>Bump, please answer. ;)</p>

<p>Um, I'm not sure. Unlike BC which is an additional three chapters to the AB class, isn't Lit an entirely different course? I dunno. I think Lit is more critical analysis of reading than Lang. My school offers Lang in place of junior LA and Lit in place of senior LA, and whereas Lang is only one semester, Lit is two (we're on block scheduling). So I guess that means Lit is harder?</p>

<p>We just have lang as junior english(the entire year) and lit as senior english. For Lit, you actually have to know quotes and stuff for books, whereas lang you just show up and analyze what they've already given you...so I dunno. Lit is probably more work.</p>
