Common Questions

FAQ: Everything Parents Ask

Can't find what you need? Our academic advisors are available across all US time zones.

Which novels should my child prepare for the open question?+
We help select two or three works your child knows deeply - depth beats breadth on Question 3.
My child struggles with poetry. Can that change?+
Yes. Poetry analysis is a learnable process, and it is usually the fastest section to improve.
How is this different from AP English Language?+
Literature works with fiction and poetry; Language works with non-fiction and rhetoric.
What is the sophistication point?+
A rubric point for nuanced, well-developed argument. We teach specifically what earns it.
