[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got credit for two 3s at UMD in 2001. But it wasn’t for the equivalent course, just six credits towards graduation. [/quote] This^^^ Sure they can give credit for a "3". But rarely is it credit for equivalent courses needed for a major. So if you need Calc 1, a 3 on Calc AB is not going to give you credit for Calc 1 for engineering/CS/Math/Most stem majors. So in reality it is not real credit. [/quote] And many degree plans don't include "random credits" so, if the awarded credits don't fulfill some req, either major or gened, they are basically worthless.[/quote]
