High School?

ok, im in the 10th grade, and I want to take AP english, my grade in english is an A. At my school, you need to get teacher initials for recommendation to any AP class, when I asked my english teacher which AP class I should take, she said american lit(regular english). English has always been my best subject and I really want to take AP. Should I take the english AP exam and if I pass do the class anyways ?





And what should I say if I pass the AP test and the counselor tries to say that I didnt get a teacher recommendation ?

Tell the councilor that you felt qualified to take the course, but wanted to take the test to prove it. If you have to, go to the teacher, and explain how well you did on the test, and ask for the recommendation.
Reply:if you think you can do it, go through with it
Reply:i took the AP English exam last year. It's two parts, mulitple choice and then 3 essays. You really have to have to be in a good and persuasive habit of writing in order to be able to write decent content for the essays. After alot of practice, you'll do fine on that part. The mulitiple choice however, is a little more difficult, at least it was for me. you just read passages and asnwer questions, and the questions deal with literary terms mostly. for example they might ask you where in the story taht you read do u see a hyperbole or personification, but they give u much HARDER terms that you have to go over and memorize to understand what they mean. GOod luck with whatever you choose!
