About to take english comp with essay. Anybody take and pass this one. Any further suggestions besides IC or will I do fine studying here?

I took the CLEP Eng. Comp. that required writing, and I took it without studying. While I'm pretty good with grammar, my writing is only adequate. It was, to my surprise, good enough to pass. Not that I'm a horrible writer, but I REALLY felt the time constraint negatively affected my writing. How are you at writing? You might want to practice writing under timed conditions if you're taking that exam. Also, check out how to reference/site sources in your writing. They're not trying to get super technical on you, but they want to make sure that you know how to incorporate another's ideas in your writing without plagiarizing (spelling?).

Best of luck. After the writing, it was the waiting that was tough.
