<p>I didn't get a 680 on Writing on SAT (I got 640), I didn't take AP Lit, so now I'm short of the writing requirement. </p>
<p>How can I skip it, or if I can't when can I take a class? Lastly, is the class "easy"?</p>
<p>either take the analytical writing placement exam offered by the UCs or take College Writing here...i heard it was manageable..but it IS 6 units</p>
<p>Either AP English exam counts right? I took the Composition one and got a 5.</p>
<p>no, you only get credit for writing 1a, whereas a 5 on the literature will give you credit for 1a and 1b</p>
<p>thats so stupid i got a 670.</p>
<p>Retake the test, or take the placement test given by Berkeley. You should be able to get out of it one way or another.</p>
<p>Monkeys, I did not know that and I am not taking the literature one. I thought it didn't matter because I was only going to get credit for 1a. I could have sworn that I read that either exam could cover only the first writing course.</p>
<p>I guess I was mistaken.</p>
<p>yep. if you want to look at the official site regarding english credit, see <a href="http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/requirements/rc.html%5B/url%5D">http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/requirements/rc.html</a></p>
<p>Damn, another test. Ugh</p>
<p>haha, I got a 670!</p>
