Note: Studies have shown that students who are not proficient in reading comprehension and/or writing skills usually experience significant difficulty in coping with academic work. Therefore, students who receive inadequate scores on entrance tests administered by SCCC are expected to take courses offered by the Department of Developmental Studies to bring their reading and/or writing skills to the appropriate level before registering for ENG 123.
