<p>I’m sure someone has already talked about this but I can’t find a thread relating to it. Can someone please inform me what the essay will entail?</p>

<p>Thanks so much</p>

<p>I got a 4 on the AP language exam last year and i just took the lit exam this year...does this mean that I still have to take this writing test?? shouldn't I get credit for these classes?</p>

<p>AP Eng Lit gives you credit for English Literature classes, not writing classes, so that doesn't exempt you.</p>

<p>AP Eng Comp gives you credit, to my understanding, for WR99 (assuming you don't putz around on your BUWA). All colleges (except CGS) require at least WR100, so you still have to take the BUWA to make sure that you at least place into WR100.</p>
