You wrote your Unit 3 WRA II Essay today. Hopefully, you'll get the results back within 1-2 weeks. Your next major assessment will be the Unit 3 Final Exam, which you'll write on Tuesday, June 6th. I will post the study guide for this exam next Tuesday.



You got back the results of your Unit 3 WRA II Essays today, and the TNC Dossier Assignment.
