How to find out what your grade is?

Ok, so the school I go to in the the normal school year makes you take the lab the same time you take the lecture and the lecture is all the credits and the lab is zero credits (hope this is making sense so far) and these two things are combined to make your total grade, even though the lab is zero credits. The school I'm attending this summer to take Gen Chem I and II lets you take the labs whenever you want and the lecture whenever you want and each count for their own specific grade. The lecture is worth 3 credits and the lab is worth 1. So mainly my question is how do you figure out your entire grade-lab and lecture combined to put it on the vmcas. Because I'm not doing so grand in the lecture but lab I rock (which is usually the case and lab is what brings my entire grade up) what would that mean for my lecture grade. Ugh I'm so confuse. Sorry if I also confused the rest of you too

If the classes are separate like that, then you don't combine them, to my knowledge. Your lab and lecture grades are entirely separate and don't help or hurt one another.

You don't combine them on VMCAS. Count them as two separate classes with two separate grades...that's what I did. I always like classes that combine lab and lecture grades since the lab will always bring up my grade 🙂 But for those that give you a separate credit for the lab, you have to count it as a different class

That stinks. I'll just have to kick it up a notch in lecture...curious how these classes will transfer to my regular undergrad since they do the lab and lecture combined 😕 (they told me the classes would transfer) lol!

If they are separate classes, you have to list them separately. My school usually has a 3 credit class with a 1 credit lab that are supposed to be taken together and you list them separately on your application.

Does the lab have a different course code than the lecture? If so, then I'm pretty sure they're considered entirely separate courses.
