GPA vs. the number of credits?

<p>So, which one might be more impressive in the eyes of the ad coms, 40 credits with 3.8 GPA or 64 credits and associate's degree with 3.5 GPA?</p>

<p>well, when you transfer you need to have atleast 60 credits..</p>

<p>Not necessarily. I applied and was accepted to some good schools this past spring with only 34 credits.
Now I’ll have 55 and will have 64 before the summer next year. My GPA will drop a bit, and that’s why I’m asking.</p>

<p>It depends on what school you are coming from, in my opinion.</p>
