Question 1

What will I learn in AP English Literature and Composition (W)?

Accepted Answer

AP course English Literature and Composition engages students in the careful reading and critical analysis of literature. Through the close reading of selected texts, students deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for their readers. As they read, students consider a work's structure, style and themes, as well as such smaller-scale elements as the use of figurative language, imagery, symbolism and tone. Reading in an AP course is both wide and deep. The reading necessarily builds upon and complements the reading done in previous English courses so that by the time students complete their AP course, they will have read works from several genres and periods – from the 16th century to the 21st century. Writing assignments focus on the critical analysis of literature and include expository, analytical and argumentative essays. This college-level course is for motivated, college bound seniors who wish to earn Advanced Placement and/or credit toward their freshman year in college. College credit is determined by scores students earn on the College Board AP Exam administered in May and by the college or university selected by the student. Students will read world literature of various periods and genres. Emphasis in the course will be on reading literature analytically and writing critical analysis essays about literature to demonstrate the synthesis of the student's creative and critical thinking as well as the universality of the literature.
