aeh, I think you hit the nail on the spot regarding the problem. Yes, I meant to show that what my English class is doing is standard for all high school students.
Sometimes, I like to read non-fiction if it intrigues me, but I usually lose interest in the reading real quickly. It takes brute force to focus on the reading, especially since the passages are extremely dense! This is especially true with the SAT English section. I used to be on an upward trajectory with both Math and English scores, but now my English score is decreasing, sometimes down to a 560 from an original 670...
Anyway, I usually like to read books that are a little bit below my grade level (embarrassing much?), because it doesn't usually exhaust me.
