Students also will enhance their academic writing and research skills by producing coherent essays and a short research paper using outside source materials. Based on a grade of C or higher in the course, students may proceed to ENGL 111. Prerequisite: placement by ACT English Score or by SAT Writing Score: students whose ACT English Score is from 1-17 (or whose SAT Writing Score is from 300-420) will be placed in ENGL 107.
