Upper Division writing requirement class or test?

<p>I am a recent transfer student to UC Davis this fall. I know there is an upper division writing requirement and most people take a class to fulfill that. It is a university writing program class I believe. You can also test out of the requirement and the test is given 3 times per year. I would prefer to test out of this requirement than to take the writing class as I hope to take classes that I am really interested in during my 2 years at Davis. Has anyone taking the test? Anyone know how easy/difficult it is to test out of the requirement? Thanks!</p>
