This document discusses two Advanced Placement courses that combine multiple subjects: AP Language and Composition, which combines composition and rhetoric, and AP Seminar, which combines research skills and argumentation. For AP Lang, the exam consists of synthesis, argument, and rhetorical analysis essays along with multiple choice questions. AP Seminar involves a group and individual research project, presentation, and report, as well as an exam assessing understanding and making arguments. The document suggests taking these courses as part of the AP Capstone program, which provides a certificate for students who pass the AP Seminar and Research exams along with four other AP exams.
