Hi, have been following the thread, and am trying to understand the system of college credits as I have no experience with this system. As an IB student, with math physics and chem, all at HL, i understand that some colleges will have the following credits provided the score is between 5 to 7:
Math 16500 and 16600 (8 hours)
Chemistry 11500 and 11600 (8 hours)
English 23100 (3 hours)
Physics 17200 (4 hours)
What does "credit awarding| mean? Does it mean that he does not have to attend certain classes? Or he does not have to write certain exams? If the latter, how is the GPA then calculated?
