Title: Subject Selections - If I want to do Lit i HAVE to do Eng too
Post by: J_Rho on October 21, 2019, 04:54:49 pm
Hey,
So if I was to do Literature I would HAVE to do Literature too...does anyone else's school do this too?
I was contemplating doing lit instead of mainstream eng (as im better at Lit) but my school makes mainstream English compulsory :"(

^assuming the second "Literature" is a typo for English.

My high school didn't have a rule like this - but I can see why a school may do this. Usually, the stronger Engish students opt for Literature so as the school makes those students do English alongside Literature the school gets those high English scores from those students.

That's super frustrating- and no, my school doesn't have that rule.

My school had this rule in the past, I'm not 100% certain if they still have this rule aha (mainly because my school allowed you to accelerate 3/4 Lit if you were a keen been though)
