english 190

<p>I managed to get a 5 on the AP lit exam. I've been looking through the unc website and I can't find out exactly english 190 is. Does anyone know what the course is and if it fulfills any requirements?</p>

<p>Good question. My d, who will be a sophomore, got 5s on the AP-Lit and AP-Language exams. With her SAT scores of 760 in CR, 780 in Writing and 750 on Literature SAT II, I understand she should have been exempted from the first two intro Engl classes (101, 102) and rec'd 6 hours credit for those classes... plus rec'd 3 hours credit for Engl 190. The credit for 190 is yet to show up on her transcript and I can't find the description of the class either. It would be nice to know if it is worth the hassle of pursuing this or not.</p>

<p>Hey guys, Engl 190 doesn't appear to be a current class, but looking at the Undergraduate Bulletin (<a href="http://www.unc.edu/ugradbulletin/requirements.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.unc.edu/ugradbulletin/requirements.html&lt;/a&gt;) credit for it should count for the Literary Arts requirement. :)</p>

<p>This is correct. ENGL 190 counts for Literary Arts perspective. It is worthless for pretty much everything else though--won't help you if you want to major in English.</p>
