yesucan asked:


English is my second language, now my question is, that i want to take some college credit classes, are they gonna accept me, or do i have to finish ESL for me to be able to take credit classes, now I did take the TOEFL test the score is 61 and I know its probably a little low, but i know i can score higher. So what do you think, I just want your opinion, because I know I still have to call the college and talk to them.
Thank you…
