curriculum note
This video was recorded around 2019–2020 when AP Lang first introduced analytic rubrics. While the core 1-4-1 structure still applies, specific rubric criteria (especially sophistication categories and evidence/commentary descriptors) may have been updated — always verify against the current College Board rubric before the exam.
