    do they show up on your transcript?

    I dunno - you might want to email AMCAS about this one.

    Get a copy of your official transcript. Some students have courses that aren't included in their school GPA but are included in their AMCAS GPA.

    "developmental". I like that. I may use that to explain my crappy first semester at the JC.
