Hello everyone
I am a Chinese student who is preparing to apply to one of the Big 3 schools in the US. However, I did not pass the IELTS or TOEFL exam, so I am looking to complete a college-level writing/composition course or earn 9 credits at a school in the US to fulfill the requirement. Where can I cheaply complete this?

I tried the second one and must say it worths it
I´m doing Quantitative Analysis I in Tel Learning.
It´s a lot of work, but it´s very doable.
You can´t just jump to the final exam, there are many little quizzes and activities to complete in order to earn points.

No, I haven't participated in any exams. It takes too much time.
