[quote=Anonymous]I loved Bleak House as a kid! Even my kid with learning disorders and severe ADHD had a 35 out of 36 on his ACT and could understand this. Also, I see you and the author in the linked article have cherry-picked the worst responses :-) Well, this sure explain the abysmal English curriculum of my kids' public school system! Only AP English courses, Comp and Lit, have any kind of rigor in MCPS. The rest is... horrible. I gave my kids reading lists of classics every summer since they were little. Otherwise they would have had practically no meaningful exposure to literature, and no practice in reading such complex texts, before AP Lit.[/quote]
