I applied to UC Berkeley as a Business major, but didn't do my research and realized that they only accept 4s and above for AP exams. At my community college, I was able to skip English 101 or my "first" English course because I got a 3 on one of my AP Lit exams in high school. My counselor told me UCLA will accept it, but I forgot to ask about this for Berkeley.
I'm filling out the supplemental forms right now and I am unsure if I should spend time answering the essay prompt knowing that the 3 on my exam won't be taken as credit for English. I only took 1 English course at my CC and put in my UC application that the second required English course was fulfilled by AP credit. Since Berkeley does not accept 3s, should I still apply and fill out the essay portion?
