AP 12 or Die

Ms. Serensky preaches keys to writing essays in 40 minutes flat while fully comparing and contrasting two poems about explanations to children without getting hand cramps and writing legibly at the same darn time.  She drills flawless pre-writing strategies into the minds of her students.  Mark up the prompt.  SOAPSTone.  Pre-write the center first.  ATFQ (Answer the...question).  All of these practices ingrained into her pupils' heads make them the best of the best, but what can prepare you for the trials and tribulations the climb to top-notch writer brings?  This can.  Similar to McGraw-Hill's 5 Steps to a 5 series, I present to you 3 Steps to Survival: AP English 12 with Ms. Serensky Edition.  Step 1: Self-Assessment.  You must ask yourself if you have what it takes to survive.  If you cannot spell AP then you probably do not belong in this class.  If you cannot spell honors, well you get what I am saying.  And if you cannot spell college prep you might as well give up.  Anyways, ask yourself if you have a passion for reading and writing; if you have a right brain in working order for witty blog posts; if you want to improve your writing ability.  This last question must receive a "yes" or else you will not experience success.  Step 2: pre-AP 12 English Core Training.  This step requires the willingness to sweat for literary achievement.  Our proven training regimen will improve your 40-word dash time, your writing stamina, overall brainpower, among much more.  Reference our website at www.ap12od.net for detailed day-by-day, exercise routines.  Finally, Step 3: Power Through.  AP English will provide you with some of the most academic adversity in your high school career, meaning your mom may question why you do not have all A's on your report card.  If you get a B, guess what, that means you have room for improvement, AKA the number one goal of the class--improving.  You must have the determination to trudge through the tough times in the class.  Learning from mistakes makes up a significant amount of the learning curve, therefore you must understand that you will make mistakes.  Those that learn from them will achieve the most success and survive.  Charles Darwin called it survival of the fittest for a reason, and the same goes for AP English.  Follow these three steps and you will find yourself atop of the English food chain.
