Some questions regarding Coursera certificates.

Finished two courses:
Data Analysis and Visualization Foundations Specialization
3 creds BUS 345, 3 creds BUS 3XX & 3 creds BUS 1XX (bus electives)
ACE:
LD  3cr  introduction to data analytics
UD  3cr  advanced data analytics
UD  3cr  intermediate data visualization

IBM Data Analyst Professional Certificate
3 creds BUS 440 and 9 creds BUS 1XX (business electives)
ACE:
LD  3cr  introduction to data analytics
LD  3cr  introduction to SQL programming
LD  3cr  introduction to Python programming
UD  3cr  advanced topics in data analytics


Some of the other courses that I'm looking into:
IBM Data Science Professional Certificate
ACE:
LD  3cr  introduction to data science
LD  3cr  introduction to SQL programming
LD  3cr  introduction to Python programming
LD  3cr  advanced topics in data science

IBM Full Stack Software Developer Professional Certificate
ACE:
LD  3cr  Cloud Computing
LD  3cr  Web Development
LD  3cr  Server Development
UD  3cr  Cloud Applications
UD  3cr  Python for Data Science
UD  3cr  SQL Application

1. If I do the IBM Data Science Professional Certificate, will I only get 6 new credits since 6 of them basically repeat themselves? I actually only need to do 50% of the course since the last two cover it partially.
2. If I finish the IBM Full Stack Software Developer Professional Certificate, how will that look in the diploma transcript? Do I understand correctly that in the transcript I would have the
“cloud computing, web development, server development” subjects listed, or would I have the certificate listed? It kind of makes sense to add it to increase my chances of transferring credits to an IT degree or trying to apply for a Masters in IT. Instead of just filling it up with random electives. I think it was mentioned above already, but it’s best to clarify just in case.
