Take AP English!

Dear Sophomore,
I recommend that you take AP English 11.  Back when I was in Honors English 10, I was so clueless as to how to write an essay or correctly analyze anything.  Taking AP English was one of the best decisions of my high school career.  I have heard so many excuses for sophomores' reasons to not sign up for the class, such as "I am such a slow reader" or "I suck at English," but the point of taking AP English is to learn, not to automatically be the best student.  I know the class has been one of my best learning experiences of high school and I guarantee it will continue to please students.  AP English has prepared me well for college and beyond and I would definitely tell anyone who will listen to take the class.  I think you would regret not signing up for AP English 11.
Sincerely,
Hannah

  1. Hannah, I completely agree with your letter! When I was a sophomore, I, too, was apprehensive about taking AP English. I had heard so many scary rumors from my sister and older students that I was rather uncertain about whether or not to take the class. However, I am so glad that I decided to take AP English because I have learned so much, and it has ended up being one of my favorite classes.
