has anyone taken the ISU English 101 clep/Dante's exam.....I am PETRIFIED of taking this exam ..I am horrible at essay writing and am afraid I'm going to fail, then not be able to continue the program...even thinking and writing about this makes me so anxious......any info on how difficult or any info at all would be greatly apreciated......thanks

If you are that bad at essay writing then perhaps you need to actually *take the class*. There are a LOT of papers to write in the nursing program and the professors are not easy graders. You need to know how to write well prior to starting the program.

do you have anyone that can help you? maybe write some papers and have someone correct them for you. then after practicing a bit take the exam, do the best you can and see how it goes. maybe you are better then you think you are :)

then if you need to take a real college class, then do it. it will help you in the long run for sure!

Ah I see. So if you've written good papers before than maybe it's just the impromptu aspect that's freaking you out? I was the same way with the public speaking one so I totally get that. :)
