English 4W

<p>Can I just take this class to satisfy my Writing 2 requirement? Some people have been telling me that you need to take two writing 2 classes to fulfill that requirement ... is this true?</p>

<p>yes, you can take it to satisfy part of the requirement. however, it is not recommended since that class will be full of english majors (ie it's hard).</p>

<p>alternatives include english comp courses (5W, 6W, 100W), and any others that my be writing 2</p>

<p>"part" of the requirement? so you really do have to take 2 courses?</p>

<p>Yeah, 2 courses.</p>

<p>Either 2 writing II courses. Or one writing II and one seminar course.</p>

<p>I can't find any course description for 5W or 6W though. Where do you see it? I've searched on the general catalog, and they've listed out 100W but not the other two.</p>

<p>If I took a cluster, would the spring quarter fulfill ALL my writing reqs, or would I still have to take one more Writing II class?</p>

<p>^i believe it fulfills the entire requirement. check your DPR; it should say "satisfied" next to "writing II:"</p>

<p>it does. spring seminars fulfill a writing II and a seminar, so you're done :)</p>

<p>i have another question: even though my writing II req is fulfilled, do i still need to take another writing II to count for a "year of eng" that is required for med school? or does the seminar+writing II count as 2 separate classes toward the med school english req?</p>

<p>5W and 6W are listed under the ENGLISH COMPOSITION department (separate from english) these classes are not offered every quarter, but i know for a fact that they were offered last spring.</p>

<p>For the record, English 4W is not full of English majors -- in fact, the class was specifically for non-English majors. There are specific 4W classes designated for English majors.</p>

<p>And 4W was actually really easy. Might've just been my TA though.</p>
