[quote=Anonymous]DD is taking AP Lang in 11th grade - doing fine with a B+ but not knocking it out of the park. Her other classes are very rigorous and she has As or A-s, maybe one B+ over the years, in those. She says English isn't her thing, but she also wants to go to a very selective college. For next year, she wants to take Honors English 12 and take other subject classes that are more rigorous. I am pushing for at least DE because it is more "rigorous" but it also sounds complicated - either you take it off campus and need to figure that out (but get a free period during the day?) or take it at school. She says that kids say that the DE class offered at school is basically just AP Lit and really hard. Does anyone have any more insight - both into the content of the classes and how it might be looked at by colleges? I have accepted that she won't take AP Lit but taking honors 12 seems like going down two levels when she isn't really struggling that much. TIA. [/quote]
