    Default A&I Literature - with or without essay
    I plan on taking on A&I Literature next, but I'm confused about the essay option. Is the non-essay exam worth 6 credits?

    Thanks!

    Brian

    The non-essay version is good for 6 credits at most colleges, but I think some colleges require the essay to grant credit.
