Advance Standing - Unspecified Credit Points? (1 Viewer)

[Habib]

Hey guys

Im have some confusion at uni...

I have been granted 6 unspecified credit points for 100-level subject.
Ive tried talking to some of the teachers at uni but I dont understand what I can use it for.

Im doing computer science, first year. My subjects last semester were:

CSCI103 (core)
CSCI114 (core)
MATH141 (elective)
MATH121 (core)

This semester Im doing:

CSCI124 (core)
STAT131 (core)
ELEC182 (elective)
(CSCI102 was taken off because I had specified advance standing for it).

So as you can see. Im doing 48 points this year. Which will let me finish my first year of my course this year, correct?

I dont understand what I can use the 6 unspecified credits points for... can I use it to "remove" ELEC182 so I dont have to do the elective this semester? What exactly can I use it for? I understand I cant use it to remove a core, but can I use it to do less subjects by removing my elective?

Thanks guys!

I'm not really sure... have you spoken to the head of your school?

He should definately know.

I think you can remove an elective with it, but i'm not sure.

Unspecified credit can be use in place of elective credit points, it's just there to 'fill up' your degree.

so does that mean I can remove ELEC182 because its an elective?

From what I can see... yes, you can. But, you would just have to speak with your School or with the person who gave you the unspecified credit just to confirm.
