Hey all, thanks for all the help thus far. Get ready for more ?'s.
I have a dilemna in classifying many of my courses as science v. non-science. The AACOM gives criteria for the classification of most classes...unfortunately mine fall into a 'grey area' and was looking for any input, ideas, and/or interpretations of how I should classify four oddball courses.
PE 443 Myocardial disease and arrythmia diagnosis
PE 441 General pharmacology for paramedics
PE 440 Medical measurements and terminology
PE 444 Principles and therapeudics of advanced life support
My school (a 4 year state university) doesn't have a medical school so my BS Paramedic major, and the entire program (a major lasting 2 years...not just the 4 courses listed) is under the guise of the university's school of physical education, we are an 'odd duck' major. That's why the courses are numbered as PE.
Please note...these classes are not Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)...that is an entirely different animal...only a 1 quarter 8 credit course. These are actually 400 level university courses. And these are also not 'practical courses'...these are lecture...practicals I know not to include.
Anyways...these 4 courses have me a little confused as to whether or not they are science...or what...as the descriptions offered by AACOM don't really classify them. Don't want to include them as science and have them think I was trying to insert good grades fraudulently...but I would like to use them as science (the whole good grade thing) if they are 'legal'.
Any opinions???
