<p>Okay so my 1st pass time for winter quarter isn't until tomorrow (Monday) at 12pm and ALREADY all of the writing 2 classes are FULL! I got a 3 on AP English and was planning on taking Writing 2 this quarter so I can finish the writing requirement (writing 50) by the end of my freshman year. My first question is: when is the latest I have to fulfill the writing requirement? (Someone told me I had to finish it by the end of my 1st year but I'm not sure) Also: are there any classes I can take that will fulfill writing 2 so I can finish it by winter quarter? Thanks for any suggestions/answers!</p>
<p>Hey don’t freak!!!</p>
<p>the letters and science advising website states that you must fulfill your writing 2 requirement by the end of your second year (6 quarters), and it has to be writing 2, there is a replacement of writing 2, " Writing 2, or one of its variants, Writing 2E or 2LK. ". I must warn you, these classes are VERY hard to crash and get into (writing 2 and writing 50), but keep an eye on any spot opening soon, sign on randomly and check. </p>
<p>For writing 50, there are other classes that fulfill it “English 10, Writing 50, 50E, 50LK, or 109AA-ZZ.”</p>

<p>Thanks for the response…I guess I’ll keep an eye on GOLD and see if one opens up, and I’m assuming it’s not worth it to try to crash a writing 2 class lol.</p>
<p>I’d say still attempt to because you really never know.</p>
<p>go to waitlist.ucsb.edu and keep checking to see when the waitlist for writing 2 will be up.</p>
<p>You shouldn’t take 50. It’s a waste of time. Take 109 series during your junior year. Some upper division English classes might require writ 2, but I don’t think you’re gonna take those soon.</p>
