Which software did you guys use to cut/crop your portrait to a size that is compatible with gtown website? I'm using Paint from Windows; the size is fine, but i can't get to the height and width that the website wants. 'Paint' with 100% zoom always come with the same height and width. I cant lower the zoom to less than 100% either. any thoughts?

For Boston University 2ndary, under Prerequisite Grid: what does that mean by "Number of Lecture/Classroom Semesters'. Does that mean how many semester of a certain class I took during undergrad? (like for gen. chem. it would be 2? )
 
In paint go to "Image" at the top then to "attributes", there you can select to resize the picture and also choose to do that in inches, pixels or Cm.

This is a nice free program that is pretty powerful given its size and lack of a pricetag. In order for it to work you have to have the .NET 2.0 Framework installed.

I was actually wondering the same thing. I think you're right, though.

Sounds right- though I'm not sure what alternative explanation you're thinking of, so maybe I'm misunderstanding the question. If you took two semesters of G.Chem, you would enter 2. If you took 2 semesters of G.Chem lecture and 2 semesters of G.Chem Lab, the answer would still be only 2.

Thats a little confusing, you're right. I have taken 9 bio courses, do I choose 9 from the drop down screen?
