OAC-Ontario Academic Course

My comment:

OACs in English are intended primarily for students who plan to go to university, both for those who will take English courses there and those who will not. Schools may offer up to three English OACs. OAC I: Language and Literature is the core course, and students taking one OAC will take this course. All Ontario students entering university with an English course will have completed the same core requirements. The other OACs that students may take are Writer’s Craft and Studies in Literature.

Each of the courses must have a literature component; a language component, incorporating the study of structure and style and linked to the literature component in each course; an independent study unit; and a writing folder.There are three OACs in mathematics: Finite Mathematics; Algebra and Geometry; and Calculus.
