<p>one of the requirement was 30 or higher on the combined ACT english/writing test.
does that mean the subscore of those two tests added together or the average of the two?
i called there customer service and the guy said he "think" it is...***?
and UCSB got my official ACT scores already...</p>
<p>I have this question to, but I received a 3 on the ap English language test. Does that mean I do not have to take the test?</p>
<p>**@Frankie51: **Getting a 3 on any AP English Lang test gets you past the Entry Level Writing Requirement, and you’re not allowed to take Writing 1, 1E, or 1K for credit at UCSB.

<p>**@whifang: **Wish I could help, but I don’t know enough about the ACT to make an educated answer.
Maybe this will assist you…</p>
<p>“The Combined English/Writing score is then reported on a 1–36 scale.”

<p>I would assume the above link to the scale scores table is the score that you look at to see if you meet UCSB’s requirements.</p>
<p>I definitely have to take this, but I was waitlisted and if I don’t get in I’ll be going to a CSU. Should I sign up to take it anyway or could I take it at a later date because I was waitlisted?</p>
<p>@AlamedaAndre: By “this” i assume you mean you have to take the placement exam. To which, I offer you this information.</p>

<p>You still should be able to take the test after you’re “un-waitlisted” (hope you get accepted), at the second date (September 24th). I suggest you take it during then.</p>
<p>Just to add, College of Engineering and College of Letters & Science have different writing courses</p>
