COURSE DESCRIPTION
The AP English Language and Composition course aligns to an introductory college-level rhetoric and writing curriculum. The course focuses on the development and revision of evidence-based analytic and argumentative writing, the rhetorical analysis of nonfiction texts, and the decisions writers make as they compose and revise. Students evaluate, synthesize, and cite research to support their arguments. Additionally, they read and analyze rhetorical elements and their effects in nonfiction texts—including images as forms of text—from a range of disciplines and historical periods.
Registration for the AP Exam can be done at myap.collegeboard.org. Payment of $99 is due by October 31st, 2024 to avoid late fees.
