GPA Confusion

[Jpc984]

How tough are they on the course codes i.e. T,B,I,O,S... For example. I have taken many forensic science courses. Where would that fall under. Another... I am taking radiation health. Could I say that is radiology, or even physics? Thanks...

you can say it is whatever you want, but in the end, aacomas will call it what they want. call/email them if you want some verification ahead of time though.
