I'm trying to fill out my AMCAS from abroad at a non-US sponsored institution. We run on trimesters with two courses per trimester, but it's converted to 32 semester hours for the year back home. How should I represent this for credit hours on the AMCAS app.? Do I just check that 'units are NOT convertible to semester hours' and leave semester hours blank? Also I don't finish until the end of june here, so should I check off courses for the third trimester as current/future coursework even though they're pass/fail and I'm certain I'll pass? Finally, what the heck is the difference between semester and credit hours? Argh, this is obnoxious.
