I didn't take the Freshman Comp with Essay test, but took Excelsior's College Writing test instead. I hadn't been in school for well over 20 years, nor had I done any essay writing. I did have a lot of experience writing reports, developing training materials and other business-related writing. If possible, I'd recommend that you take the College Writing test to fulfill your Written English Requirement, only because you get to use the My Access writing tool, which gives you instant feedback on your writing results. You can have a lot of control in determining where you're at as far as your readiness to take the test is concerned. As anyone who has tested out for a course can tell you, the practice tests are indispensable, and that's what the My Access tool is, essentially.
