Astronomy Under Physics Department

At my school Astronomy(PHY109) is under physics department. Would this class be included in the bcp GPA?

This may seem like a silly question but what is the bcp GPA?

Here you are, my man.

Well if its a physics class than I dont see why it wouldnt cound under BCP. I took Astronomy Stars and Galaxies at a CC over summer for elective credit and I loved it. Makes you realized how insignificant you are when you read things like there are 100,000,000,000 stars per galaxie and there are 10,000,000,000 known galaxies. So many crazy facts, especially when you get into cosmology. Definatly reccomend taking it.

I took cosmology under the physics dept... it blew my mind... (and helped my sci gpa a tiny bit too)

Yea cosmology is one the coolest most mindblowing scientific frontiers. The numbers are hard to wrap your mind around sometimes, but one of the fact I remember that really mind blowing is...the entire visible universe (which since the universe is about 14 billion years old, is about 14 billion light years out in every direction) was all confined to the size of an atomic nucleus, then expanded to the size of an acorn and then kept expanding to its current size (there are more details and complex crap im leavin out, but you get the idea). I kept my textbook, so I could keep readin it.

so does this count into BCP gpa or not?

I said earlier that if its a Physics class than there is no reason why it shouldnt count in your BCP grade. I took mine at a community college so it didnt count towards my GPA anyway.

All of my ASTR courses counted towards my sciGPA, including Life in the Universe and Astrobiology 😎

all community college works also count toward your gpa when you send it into aadsas

i think ur astro class should be in sci but not BCP.

Yes, Astronomy counts towards your Science GPA, not BCP.
