I have been working in a lab at my university over the summer. This fall I signed up to do 1 credit of undergrad research in the same lab. I only signed up for 1 credit because I am only a sophomore and I can only do 12 total before I graduate, so I wanted to spread them out. Also I could not go over 18 credits anyways.
I know 1 credit is about 30 hours or so for the semester, however I am putting more time in that 1 credit because I enjoy it and I want to get ahead to publish.
I am not familiar with how the applications work so I am sorry if this is a dumb question. Am I going to be able to add that I worked over 100 hours rather than 30 on my application?
If not, should I talk to my professor to see if I can add more credit this late in the semester or take the loss?
