<p>Point proven.</p>
<p>Author intention analysis of literature is only one level of interpretation, and perhaps, the most superficial level of interpretation. Literary analysis involves how the “text”, separate from the “author”, speaks to the reader, as well as how the reader actively interprets the text with his/her arsenal of literary knowledge (the fundaments of intertextuality, the ongoing dialogue of texts). Analyzing literature on the basis of “what the author meant” is only one facet of literary criticism, and it should not be taken to represent the study of literature as some sort of mind-reading challenge.</p>
<p>MATH. most definitely! DX</p>
<p>English. Can’t stand IB!</p>
<p>I love english and history but I absolutely despise anything beyond basic math.</p>
<p>In my former school, AP Calculus (AB) and AP Biology were considered the “hardest” subjects. Then again, when one sees the quality of students in my school, the reputations of those courses are somewhat unfairly given.</p>
<p>Math. I am a firm believer that math is for people who can’t read.</p>
<p>History, ugh. 
I’m also not a big fan of either Biology or Chemistry… way too much rote memorization involved in all of them.</p>
<p>I generally dislike my math/science classes. But that probably has more to do with the fact that my teachers are all pretty bad. I love my English and History classes, but those generally have better teachers in them at my school.</p>
<p>really, english is so easy to bs that I can’t possibly hate it</p>
<p>History though! freakin’ hate us history, world history was kinda interesting but still overall I felt it was pointless</p>
<p>I liked spanish for the most part except getting into plucomperfercto or whatever it was because I was never all that great at the conjugation crap, like I’d have to just say it in my head till something sounded right and the “proper” spanish they teach makes no practical sense since I’m not in spain.</p>
<p>i agree with all that’s being said about English…my least favorite subject…i’d rather learn other languages than analyze why some author did something</p>
<p>
Not true there are word problems!</p>
<p>Haha, ok. You got that one.</p>
<p>Government and Politics. I did not enjoy learning it in APUSH and as a result, I did not sign up for its AP class.</p>
<p>I think the most annoying subject in my school is PE. I don’t mind playing the games and all, but I hate having to carry the extra bag around all day. (Most of) the teachers take it SO seriously, and it just gets me so mad. If you are in shape, gym is easy and should not be a big deal. If you are out of shape, doing 15 pushups and 20 situps every other day sure isn’t going to get you in shape, so gym shouldn’t be a big deal. And if you forget clothes ONCE, you pretty much get an A-, which is a GPA killer. That’s another thing, they have such strict requirements for the acceptable clothes to prevent kids from wearing gang colors. I own tons of workout acceptable clothes, but very few are gym class acceptable. THis is annoying because I have to make sure they’re clean all the time. And I have to take sneakers into school. I hate having to carry those around. SWimming is the WORST. Our pool is so nasty. There’s a film of chemicals on the top. And there’s so much chlorine that everyone’s eyes feel like they’re going to fall out for the rest of the day. And just being wet…yuck. Which reminds me, I hate that feeling aftr gym of being sweaty and having to go to class. That’s horrible. </p>
<p>/rant</p>
<p>^You’ll like my school. We don’t have PE in high school, but 99% of high schoolers in my school are in a sport. </p>

<p>IMHO, my economics class was extremely annoying. We don’t have AP, so I was stuck with a class of sophomores who didn’t know how to calculate percentages.
We had a Bible class, lol.</p>
<p>^^At my school I don’t have to do anything (female + sexist guy teacher)</p>
<p>^ You had a female gym teacher?</p>
<p>No, we have plenty of kids that don’t do anything, and I could do nothing if I wanted to. I have fun in gym. I just hate that I have to take it.</p>
<p>@Nulli, I was lucky enough to have PE last both years, and we don’t have swimming.</p>
<p>AP Euro was probably one of the most annoying classes I’ve ever taken in my life. We spent the bulk of the period reviewing current events every day which was fun, but this means that we barely learned anything. Our “homework” was to outline each chapter. We had approximately 2 weeks for each outline and they were due on the test date. Of course, most of us procrastinated so we’d be up until 4 A.M. the night before, trying to study and outline 30 something small-print pages at the same time. I literally felt like I was a slave to Euro outlines. They were so incredibly time-consuming. </p>
<p>The teacher was a tyrannical ******bag as well, so that didn’t help matters. I literally feel like I learned nothing in that class… somehow I still managed to get a 4 on the AP test.</p>
