<p>It says in the email that it will not affect our admissions status. However, does it affect our courses/classes? Does getting a low score on the exam mean we have to take a lower English class? Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>If you do not pass, you'll have to take remedial English 1st semester to fulfill that AWPE requirement rather than taking a normal English class right off the bat.</p>
<p>How many remedial classes do we need to take, if one didnt take or completely failed the writing placement. In terms of quarters</p>
<p>If I take the placement test and fail it, but pass the AP English test with a 3 or higher, what would happen?</p>
<p>If you pass any of the alternatives to the Academic Writing Placement Exam, you won’t have to take Entry Level Writing ( “Subject A”). Entry Level Writing is a UC requirement, so these rules apply to all UC campuses. The alternatives are:
3 or higher on either AP English exam, OR
5 or higher on IB HL English Literature (Language A) OR 6 or higher on IB SL English (Language A) OR<br>
680 or higher on the SAT Writing section OR 30 or higher on the ACT combined English/Writing test OR
A grade of C or better in an acceptable college course in English composition worth four quarter or three semester units.
Once you enroll at some UC campuses, you may not use a college course from another institution.</p>
<p>If you failed the AWPE, but satisfied the requirement another way, you should bring a copy of your exam scores or transcript with you to registration. You may have to persuade a counselor that you met the requirement by an altenative to the AWPE.</p>
