    Angry After "review"...I now need 1 more class =P



    Well...I thought I was finished with my requirements after getting all my upper lvl credit. My admissions officer went over my transcript again and decided I need 3 more english credits =P I'm annoyed because I could have finished it a couple months ago no problem...but now I'm in the orientation and about to begin classes (thankfully the 3 credit deficit isn't going to keep me out) and don't have much time to get the test done =P Anyway, I'm just really annoyed. From what most people have posted, sounds like Analyzing and Interpreting Literature will be the easiest choice, as I can't do writing timed.

    Sorry to hear it, Urbannaja. Analyzing and Interpreting Lit. is a great way to go. When are you going to try and squeeze it in?

    That sucks!!!

    Was this the first time they reviewed your records? I only ask this as they give you a list of what you need in the beginning and hopefully monitor and review your progress as you move along. I was usually pretty good about having the academic advisory team review my progress and exam plan so as to stay on track and avoid surprises. Good Luck!

    Nope...he had looked several times prior. He's just a very un-organized, highly stressed, and busy guy. That's why I am so annoyed...I sent him a good 4-5 emails asking if there was anything else I needed to do with no reply...it won't actually matter in the end, but it was just frustrating =)
