How much does AP English Literature matter?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I'm just trying to figure out my senior schedule for next year. I have already taken the following AP classes.
AP Calculus AB
AP Biology
AP Spanish
APUSH
AP English Language</p>

<p>For next year, I am set to take...
AP Psychology
AP Calculus BC
AP Statistics
AP US Gov.
AP Physics B
English 12 CP</p>

<p>Since I am planning to major in a science in college, I was thinking that another year of AP English wouldn't be worth it (one of the most time consuming classes at my school), especially since I have already taken the English Language exam. I'm mainly aiming for UC's and maybe a few Ivies, and I know most of them only give credit for one of the English AP tests. Any advice is appreciated.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>No, you’re fine. AP Lit has POEMS. You have to read and analyze POEMS. You don’t want to do that.</p>

<p>Haha good point.</p>

<p>Depending on what school you’re going to, such as Berkeley… Some people found out that it this biggest lie ever (and didn’t sign up for the test): If you’ve taken AP Lang you don’t need to take AP Lit (only to find out) :</p>

<p>Because the two tests might earn you half of the possible credit and you might need both of them.</p>

<p>Anyways I needed both of them as well.</p>
