The classes were very rigorous but the opportunity to take a college style classes was very helpful for the experience. Also I learned learn important skills for college such as how to write short answer response questions, and how to write a proper Document based questions(DBQ).

In my AP classes I learned as much as I did from class as I did teaching myself. I have to take the time to read and understand new information from the textbook

  • Pell Grant Advantages

    440 Words  | 2 Pages

    The meaning of the Pell grant is to help economically disadvantaged students received a higher education by reducing the burden of the tuition and fee costs, and thereby, increase college participation. However, these good intentions of the Pell grant have caused one profound and unplanned consequence; which is the contribution to growing tuition cost for public and private colleges and universities. Supply and demand are the basic concepts of economics, so it’s no surprise that the increasing demand for higher education brought on by the Pell grant will have the consequence of rising tuition.

As a result, the law of demand

  • Ap Lang Reflection

    As a former AP Lang student, I feel that this class has been very beneficial for me in that it has allowed me to apply the techniques and strategies I learned last year toward more relevant subjects. Having the freedom of choosing topics to write about for our various essays made this class more enjoyable than the other English classes that I have taken. AP Lang focused heavily on the techniques of writing solid essays, but instead of writing about useful topics, we analyzed the short stories provided on the exams. Writing a personal narrative essay was very helpful in my college application process and allowed me to employ the same kind of strategies that I learned in class into my college essays.

The big difference was that the focus was on different genres and how to appeal to those, which was something new compared to my high school English courses.

Taking long breaks from education can distract one and may lead to taking more than one year of a break. While taking a break from school before going to college, may cause some people to become young parents, then going back to school will not be a priority because now the main focus will be about their child.
