Keep in mind that if you have him for a AP Literature & Composition, that you're in an AP class—the workload will reflect that. The grading for essays is also a lot more strict than AP Lang, and more hones in on individual writing style than just the checkbox points you get in AP Lang. Being interactive in class will help you tons!

Mr. Bush is super fun, and very clearly loves interactive discussion in class. He treats his students fairly, but does make sure to remember and appreciate those who participate and show interest with the course. So long as you show him that you're putting in effort and you're completing the work, the class should be a fairly easy A.
