Does everyone have to take a English/Writing course?

<p>Is it true that everyone has to take a English/Writing course in their freshman year? If so can I get credit for it if I get a 5 or above in English IB HL? I hate language and I want to avoid it as much as possible</p>

<p>yea while were at it, does anyone know nyu's policy on IB credit at nyu? because I'd love to avoid taking math again.</p>

<p>Yes - there is basically no way of getting out of it.</p>

<p>Yea, I really want to know the IB policy for specific classes, especially for Stern, because its not listed on their website. The only thing it says is that credit is given for HL scores of 5 or higher.</p>
