I am a junior, and by the end of this year I will have taken most of the advanced classes at my school. I’s a socialstudies/english guy, so I would like to take more classes in these feilds. The problem is that I have taken the available courses at my school, and college courses really won’t work out for me next year. I figured the problem wouls be easy to solve: take independent study. Only, at my school, basically the only way to get this approved is if there is an AP test. I think I may be able to convince the administration to allow me to take an independent study literature course if I tell them it will further prepare me for the Literature and Composition AP test. I can say I feel as though my current English class doesn’t provide me the amound of study I think is necessary. I would like to have a course outline of some sort ready for when I make my proposition to the principal. Is there anyone that could help me out with making this? I was thinking it would be mostly based on reading books (possiblly a chronological study starting with classic literature) and writing an essay on some aspect of each book. Post if you have any suggestions for me.
