So last year (going into sophomore year) I was recommended for honors english but I decided to take college prep. english instead because I was taking a lot of hard classes and I wanted one that I knew I could get an A in. College prep. is below honors but above the regular english at my school. This year I never went below 100% in the class so I got recommended for honors again. I really want to take AP just because I really like English and I want more of a challenge. I also just got my PSAT results back and online it says that I would probably do good in AP lang. The only problem is I haven’t taken honors english so I don’t know if it will be too difficult or if i’ll even be allowed to take the class. Do you think I should try to get into the AP class if I can or should I just stick with honors?
Can you ask others what the two classes are like-what they cover. Decide on the basis of which would give you skills you need or which you would enjoy more?
If your teachers say that you are prepared for AP, then I would take it. You seem to be motivated and have a record of success so far.
