| I can give a bit of info on the pass/fail at Duke. You can't really take any classes pass/fail (that I know of) except for credits taken at other colleges within the US. This would be like what I did this summer, where I took Math 32 (essentially, calc II) at a school close to my house and transferred it to Duke so I wouldn't have to take it at Duke. The way it works is that all I had to do was pass the class. It doesn't factor into my GPA whatsoever, it just appears on my transcript as having taken it. This let's me into some higher classes that have it as a pre-req.
I dont know if this helps, but I hope it does... |
