I have to memorize about 110 literary terms and every two week my teacher randomly chooses 10, and we have to define them. Not match, but define them ourselves. He's pretty picky too.
We also have to memorize vocabulary words and get quizzed every week. We usually get around 20 new words every week, and on test day 10 are randomly chosen from all of the words we've had so far. We're at about 80 right now.
I also need to finish reading Jane Eyre by next week, then spend another three weeks talking about theme and discussing about 25 quotes from it.
And we're also studying poetry and can expect timed essays on poetry analysis or comparison.
And we had "hot seat" discussions on Crime and Punishment. My prompt was something about how a person hurts others and how others hurt that person. Nobody in my group understood the question, let alone capable of applying it to Crime and Punishment.
And homework from a bull**** AP Environmental Science class where he teaches nothing but assigns loads of homework.
And homework from other classes.
And college applications.
But it's AP Lits and that teacher is known for his difficulty. You don't have it that bad.
