<p>I personally enjoyed the class but I think part of it was because of my instructor and the other part was my attitude. I wasn’t exempt from it because I took the IB English exam and not the AP Lit. I went in feeling confident about my writing but I still was able to learn alot thanks to my instructor’s detailed feedback.</p>
<p>And it’s not a hard class. It just involved alot of writing and peer feedback/discussion.</p>
<p>If you received a 5 on the AP Lit exam then, as others said, you should be well-prepared in your writing skills. I would take the exemption if you want to free up your schedule for other classes and you feel confident enough in your writing abilities. If you don’t, however, don’t be afraid to take the class. At the very least you should learn a good couple ways to improve your writing from either your instructor or your peers (and there’s always room for improvement).</p>
