ap french

An advanced placement class that high school students take because they've already taken all of the French classes leading up to it, so why not? They are emersed in Francophone culture through small selective articles and are then forced to write essays in French in under an hour, get many points off because when you're writing that fast your brain seems to think it's okay to write j'aimons, instead of j'aime. After an entire year of preparation for an intensive ap exam, a coronavirus appears and the college board decides that the new, shortened, ap exam will be composed entirely of speaking.

More than half the class dropped within the first month of taking AP French.
