Hi,

I am confused about how to list a particular couple of courses on my amcas. I took some summer classes at a JC in high school; one of the classes I took was the summer after my senior year so I am curious how to list my academic status. Was I a high-school student then or a freshman in college at that point?
For the other classes I took (a psych and a physics class) will they be included in my overall gpa considering that I have them listed in the 'high-school' academic status? Should I just include these under Freshman academic status?
Lastly, I took two classes Pass/Not Pass (note: NOT pass/fail) as an undergrad. Will these classes be simply regarded as Pass on the amcas or will they give the actual grade? The actual grade is not given when i check my online transcript but im not certain about the official (anyone from Cal that can help me out with this?)
Thanks!
 
ummmm....yes? 😕
 
When I first clicked on this thread, there was nothing there. Sorry.
 
My best guess would be to list the classes you took in high school as high school status, and the one the summer after your senior year as freshman status assuming that you had already received your high school diploma.

I think in AMCA eyes Pass/Fail is the same as Pass/Not Pass.

That's what I guess I would do, but I'm definitely no expert. Anyone else?
