Abstract	This report is a comparison of the achievement of remedial English students in English Essentials classes and remedial eligible students in Freshman Composition classes. The comparison was made on the McGraw Hill Writing Test at a two-year college. Students in the English Essentials classes made significant gains on the Language Mechanics and Sentence Patterns subtests but not on the Paragraph Patterns sub-test. These gains, however, were not significantly greater than the gains made by the remedial eligible students in the Freshman Composition Classes. Research Report Snow College ,Ephraim, Utah 198?
