<p>My school doesn't offer any AP/IB courses, and I'm taking the highest courses offered (honors). I know that colleges are supposed to judge you in the context of your school, but would it help a lot if I self-studied and took an AP exam? I was thinking about taking Literature, since that's my strength. I'm also planning to take the Lit SAT II, so would it just be redundant?
I figure that self-studying might show colleges that I like to challenge myself (and I do :P).
Thoughts?
And how much harder are the Lit SAT II and the the AP Lit exam than SAT CR? Thanks.</p>
<p>And what’s the difference between AP Lang and AP Lit (in terms of content and difficulty)?</p>
<p>Bumppppppppppp</p>
<p>Ap Lang is basically a harder version of the reading section on the sat. It’s easy to do well if you learn to write the different essays. I recommend studying for it. I’m not sure about lit. If your taking calc at your high school then I recommend studying for ab. If your feeling ambitious then do BC</p>
<p>I was under the impression that AP Lit was the harder version of the SAT CR…Is AP Lit or Lang more similar to the SAT CR?</p>
<p>Lang is similar to CR. The multiple choice is very similar to the reading section, the only difference is that they get harder. And the last section of MC will be something written in old English that is very hard to understand (at least mine was). Then your gonna write 3 essays. One of them is basically an SAT writing section. Review how to do the other two.</p>
