Description:

This course is designed for students whose writing skills need to be strengthened before they are ready to enroll in college-level composition (E 101). Students are taught how to formulate a thesis and construct a well-organized, well-supported, and grammatically-proficient essay in response to topics similar to those found on the English Placement Test. Satisfactory classroom performance, as determined by the instructor, and passing of the English Placement Exam, as evaluated by a committee of English faculty, enable the student to qualify for E 101. Students may retake the class up to two more times until they achieve a passing grade on the placement test.
