[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids don't have to take the AP exams. That's optional. And the point of taking AP classes themselves is not simply to obtain college credit but to have a more challenging and rigorous curriculum, especially in public high schools. At my kid's well-regarded public high school, the "honors" English 11 curriculum requires reading four books a year. That's one book a quarter. And as I recall one of those books was Jon Krakauer's Into the Wild (not exactly War and Peace). Even if my kid had gotten a 1 or a 2 on the AP Lit or AP Lang test itself, it still would have been better to have taken the AP English over the honors English.[/quote] Sadly, I don't think my DD's AP Lit class read even 4 novels. They mostly read short stories. Oh well, I'll invite her to Book Club when she's a young adult.[/quote]
