Hi there,

Although this may sound like a silly question, I will ask it anyway:

I have the option this semester of doing a 17 or 18 credit load semester. If I add one more credit, I still would be taking the same # of courses(5), it is just that one of them would be 1 credit higher. That course is a community service type course(You have full freedom of how many credits you want to assign to it). Anyways, would this look a lot nicer on my transcript? I have never done an 18 credit semester, but I did do a 17 credit semester last semester. I am likely to get the same grade for the 17 and 18 credits, only difference is the $ I guess... So would you guys do? Is it worth tacking on that extra credit to impress the ADCOMS? Your advice is always appreciated.
 
Difference would be negligible. (Why pay to do community service?)
 
I say save your money and that 1 credit class for another semester.
 
You have to pay per credit hour? Or is that just past a certain number?
 
you're right. it is a silly question.

that being said, prime numbers >> composite numbers
