@texaspg What do you mean by rec?
@daddio3 I am not taking a language senior year. I’m taking spanish 4 honors this year and I haven’t learned anything. Taking AP Spanish would grant me the same experience; the language program at my school is not very good. I am contemplating either preparing for the AP Spanish test without the class (my mother is a native speaker and I can learn efficiently through reading an AP preparatory book) or taking the placement test at the university I’m going to and seeing where they think I belong. I am just focused on whether I should take AP English or English Literature: Beuwolf to Shakespeare. Advice on the said Spanish conflict would be appreciated as well :).
@nugraddad Congratulations to your son! I’m sorry for this question but: what is ED? Is it HPME [Northwestern] or GPPA [UIC]? Did your son take courses said in my original post while taking AP English? I don’t want to completely shoot my GPA and class rank in the foot senior year. My GPA and class rank have been improving every semester of my high school ‘career’ and I would hate for this to come to an end senior year.
