What do the Course Numbers mean? - College Confidential Forums
So, I’m going to be a freshman this fall in college. My college doesn’t allow freshmen to choose classes until June, but they did give me a link to all classes offered first semester next year. I noticed the course numbers varied from 100-400. I understand that 100’s are the easier courses, and the 400’s are the toughest, but I do have a question, even if it is silly.
UC Application Review Process & UC GPAs - College Confidential Forums
Can someone (forum moderator) please provide further insights regarding the UC-weighted (capped) GPA? Mathematically, the only way to have it approximate the fully weighted GPA is to take FEWER A-G courses, as long as there are at least 8 UC-approved honors courses. There truly is a penalty (from a UC-GPA perspective) to taking more classes, and particularly more rigorous (AP/honors etc ...
Dual credit courses - College Confidential Forums
College course work should be listed under the College and not under the HS.

How to add college courses in Common App?
Hi, I took community college courses (dual-enrollment) during high school. I have a separate transcript from the community college. These courses do NOT show up on my high school transcript.

General education requirements' value or lack thereof
In another thread, there was a digression on the value of general education requirements or lack thereof in college: Certainly, various colleges have different opinions about the value of general education requirements, based on the general education requirements they have or do not have. They also show variation in what types of courses they list for their general education requirements. Do ...
Are universities way harder than community colleges? - College Life ...
While courses usually get harder as you advance in college, the swap-out is that they’re in a course you’re interested in. The only courses I found hard in college were a couple of basic courses in which I had no interest. The rest were manageable because I only took a few at a time and I was interested in and curious about the subject matter.
Difference between 4 credit classes and 3 credit classes? - College ...
I recently learned that many colleges use the 4 credit class system whereas mine uses the 3 credit class system. In the 3 credit system, students generally take 5 3-credit courses per semester for a total of 15 credits. In the 4-credit system, students generally take 4 4-credit courses per semester for a total of 16 credits. Taking this amount of courses per semester allows the student to ...

Course Names in Essays? - College Confidential Forums
My DS2 mentioned a few of his courses in his essay last year. But he wasn’t specific. He just described them as business courses, including Marketing, Entrepreneurship, and Business Law (no quotations). It might be less formal looking if you did something like that. But you may have to reword that.
