Hi,

I’ll be majoring in ECE at Cornell and have some confusion regarding credit transfer from GCE A Level and course selection. I have taken Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Further Maths at A Level. I got A* in Maths and will hopefully get A* in Physics, Chemistry and Further Maths. Based on that, and information from these sites ( [Cornell Engineering: Engineering Handbook 2012 Advanced Placement or Transfer Credit](http://www.engineering.cornell.edu/academics/undergraduate/curriculum/handbook/2012/ap_transfer_cred.cfm) and [Cornell Engineering: Grades and Credit](http://www.engineering.cornell.edu/academics/undergraduate/curriculum/handbook/2010/grades_credits.cfm#advanced) ), I think I will receive credit for MATH 1910, CHEM 2090, PHYS 1112 and PHYS 2213. So, for the first semester I plan to take MATH 1920, PHYS 2214, CS 1112, PE 1185, ENGRG 1012 and use my blogging instead of the FWS classes. I may also take ART 2701. I am asking if the course selection is okay based on my A Level grades and the credits I hope to receive.

Thanks.
