<p>Last year I had a very tough teacher for Honors English, and I suffered B's as a result. Next year I'm planning on taking APENG, but should I risk 2 more B's just for class rigor and the benefits of taking an advanced English course? Any advice is appreciated.</p>
<p>I think that getting a B in APENG is worth more than getting an A in another class of lesser rigor. Besides, if you well in all ur classes, have stellar SAT/ACT, and have stand out EC’s, then you should have nothing to worry about =)</p>
<p>^ Exactly. Also, in a lesser class, you don’t even have the chance to get an A in the advanced course. You should at least try :)</p>
<p>Yeah, but won’t it look bad if I had B’s for both soph/junior years?
Thank you by the way for your responses flower161 and karaokemachine.</p>
<p>No prob! 
But i dont think it would be that much of an issue unless English is your main interest cuz in that case, ur interest should be where ur excelling in</p>
<p>the correct answer is to take the advanced course an get an A 
heres the thing though you have to take into account your entire transcript. do you have other APs? if you have a bunch more than dont take the risk. if you take no other honors then you need to show that you pushed yourself.</p>
