<p>Take the Spanish Clep…it may not be necessary (it used to be, I think), but it’s nice to have…especially if the future goal is Phi Beta Kappa…and more A&S credits are needed (need 90). </p>
<p>Biology or Chemistry? A passing score would give a generous 8 credits for each CLEP exam. Would that satisfy the science requirement for “majors” courses? I guess I don’t really understand the “major” distinction for science courses.</p>
<p>Not sure what you’re asking. There are often 2 version of science courses…those for majors/engineers/pre-med…and those for others (like nursing majors, etc). </p>
<p>For instance…there is a harder OChem…and there is a “less hard” OChem.</p>
<p>CLEP</p>
<p>Science and Mathematics</p>
<p>Biology 57 BSC 108 and 109 or
BSC 114, BSC 115,
BSC 116, and BSC 117 8 N</p>
<p>Chemistry 52 CH 101 and CH 102 8 N</p>
<p>BSC 114, 115, 116, 117…and CH 101 and 102 cover that first mentioned group’s req’ts. These are considered the more difficult versions.</p>
<p>¹Approved natural science (N) electives must be chosen from “majors” courses. Potential courses include: AY 101/102, AY 203/204, BSC 114/115, BSE 116/117, CH101 or 117, CH 102 or 118, GEO 101, GEO 102, GEO 105, GY 101, GY 102, PH 105 or 125, and PH 106 or 126.</p>
<p>Are CS majors required to have a minor? Edited to answer my own question…lol…</p>
<p>Minors for computer science majors. A minor is not required for students majoring in computer science. However, we strongly encourage all students to combine their individual interests with the free electives in the program to complete a minor in an area of interest to them. For example, computer science majors may earn a minor in mathematics by completing the mathematics courses required by the computer science curriculum plus MATH 227 and one additional math course numbered 300 or above, such as MATH 355.</p>
<p>So far, what is he planning for fall semester?</p>
<p>Sounds like he needs to take Frosh Comp, right?</p>
<p>And, the Frosh Engineering program classes, right?</p>
<p>How about Cal II?</p>
