<p>Yes, I searched the threads but apparently didn’t find the magic search words; so what does it mean that I am advised to take MATH20A whcih is a 4 unit course for only 2 units because I got a 3 on the Calculus AB exam? It appears there isn’t a way to register for a 4 unit course for only 2 units so that means 2 units I can’t add or waitlist in another subject because of the limits on hours. It seems like a dumb way to penalize AP students if we have to do all the work, earn less credits for it, and lose scheduling flexibility.</p>
<p>Well technically your 3 and your experience with calculus in the past isn’t really being penalized. It’s just making it more fair since some kids in your class may have received a 2 or haven’t had any Calculus experience.</p>
<p>Fine, then they should give me the option of registering it for only 2 credits so I can still take the film class that won’t fit into my maximum allowable units. Otherwise it is a scheduling disadvantage. If it’s only worth 2 credits because of my supposedly advanced skills in it, then it is only worth 2 credits, not 2 in one part of the system and 4 in another.</p>
