Does it matter how I took the credits?

<p>Ok, so I go to a community college (a satellite campus of the main community college) and it’s nearly IMPOSSIBLE for me to get the classes I need. This resulted in my having an odd schedule since I’ve been there. </p>

<p>It’s been:</p>

<p>Summer II 2012: 3 credits
Fall 2012: 6 credits
Spring 2013: 9 credits
Summer I 2013: 9 credits
Summer II 2013: 7 credits
Fall 2013: 20 credits</p>

<p>I should have over 60 credits by the time my 2 years of community college are up but do top colleges look down upon this type of schedule? I couldn’t help it since I wasn’t going to take classes I didn’t need just to have 15 credits a semester. </p>

<p>I have a 3.7 GPA so that’s not really a big issue but is how you took the credits a deciding factor they look into?</p>

<p>Don’t worry about that. Lots of people have different numbers of credits each term because of work, attending classes at more than one satellite campus, etc. You won’t be the only applicant with this pattern of classes.</p>

<p>Nope, don’t think it matters as long as you keep your GPA up! Many students have situations that arise that also have them take less credits like work and money so yeah. If they ask, you could easily explain anyway.</p>
