Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and Instant Cert. I joined instantcert because I would like to accelerate my degree. I have been asked by numerous people about my degree and why I don't have one. Well this year, I am going to change that.
So, my questions are:
1. Is English Composition easier with or without essay?
2. How long will I wait to get the results from the test?
Thanks for your help.
Ron

I attempted to take the English Comp with Essay but my test center scheduled me for Freshman Comp with Essay. It was still pretty easy and I would recommend taking it.
If you want the full six credits for Enlglish Comp you will more than likely need to do the version with essay, it's all up to your school so ask them. Some schools require essay no matter what and some require essay only if you want the full six credits, otherwise you only get three.

To be safe, take English Comp with the Essay. Almost all schools will grant you your full 6 credits if you pass that exam with a 50. Not all schools will accept freshman comp with or without essay. haha, I learned that the hard way :nopity:

Just finished my exam. I feel like I did ok except the multiple choice question were somewhat confusing. Other than that, the essay was pretty simple to me. Then again, it's mostly opinion based. Since I have a lot of opinions about a lot of things, it was easy for me.
