Reflection On Ap Literature
After these past few weeks of Ap Literature, I definitely feel I am struggling. The main reason for my struggling is mostly from the amount of writing we do, and getting used to that has been a problem. During Mrs. Levine’s class, we had an essay every two to three weeks and coming into this class we have an essay or two weekly. The large gap between the workload of the classes definitely makes me feel like I have hit a wall. In previous classes, I felt like I have always breezed through but after the first few weeks of Ap Literature, I felt the momentum had stopped. Personally, this is actually the first class that I got a B in throughout my high school career. Though I do not plan to stay at a B for the entire semester, I plan to improve

    During my high school career I have endured many sleepless nights due to my insistence that I read all the books assigned to me. For my freshman and sophomore year this was no big deal. However, after junior year with McGee I have come to realize that trying to read all the texts assigned would be my demise. As much as it pained me, I had to, instead of reading then entire text, read a simple summary. This year I have managed to get by with this same method. Throughout my semester in AP Literature in Room 303 with Timothy McGee, I have enjoyed certain texts more than others, however, the level of importance of these texts is determined not by whether or not I liked the, but rather instead what they taught me and how important they might be on the AP exam. There have been a large number of books and stories that we have covered during our time, but the three that I believe are the most…

    I am no professional at writing by any means, but I can get my thoughts and point across. I feel that two challenges that I will encounter while using the APA style would be plagiarism and writing style and format. I have noticed in the past when I was in college I tend to ramble a bit throughout my papers. I understand at this level more will be required of me and my out of my papers. Second, when it comes to plagiarism I understand it is crucial not to ever use anyones words other than your own at any point. Brushing up on my power phrasing skills is on the to do list. This way my words are clear and never misleading.…

    Both Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X were visionaries for the Civil rights Movement. One cannot argue that they were both passionate about equality for colored people. However, they both had different means of fighting for those rights. While Malcolm X went with a more aggressive approach, MLK wanted peace while gaining their rights. While they both have compelling arguments, I agree more with Malcolm X and his approach on this issue.…

    This semester has been a little difficult for me; I have faced many challenges and still have more to come. Classes have been hard to adjust to but I have tried my hardest and put my best foot forward. The main two classes that I feel I am struggling in right now are English 1000 and Math 1090. I feel these are my hardest classes because English is a weak subject for me and coming into college English is a big step for me. I have a big problem with my writing and the way I word my papers therefore English is a weakness of mine. Math is another weakness of mine because when I learn new things and I don’t understand them I don’t usually tend to ask for help and in math you learn something new every day. I was very good at math…

    Reading has always said to be the key to success, for it encourages learning. Yet, philosophers such as the German Arthur Schopenhauer state that reading too much actually is bad for the mind. I qualify these thoughts as I too agree that the excessiveness of reading may bond the mind’s creativity and freedom, yet feeding on other’s insights is also vital for a well-rounded mindset.…
