^ Except you won’t post a self-imposed grade of F if you don’t read the book.

The way this was posed:

The idea was to take the course for credit but never forward that credit to anyone **or **audit the course if the credit was eventually required to be forwarded to another institution. The advice that I got suggested that auditing would be the way to go because med-schools ask for all credits to be forwarded to them. Someone then suggested that med schools would see this as “gaming the system”.

It is like gaming the system. The idea was to never forward that credit OR audit if it did have to be forwarded. The OP wanted the benefit of a college course without being penalized for a mis-step. I can see how some med schools might see that as gaming the system.
