My Rant on Dual Credit Vs. AP Classes

Now, if you get an A grade in the DE course, and then take more advanced courses in the subject at a four year school and get A grades in them, then that may be fine for medical school admission purposes.

</p>

<p>That is ‘win-win’. The easier (juco) A is validated by the more rigorous A, and both are used to calculate the math-science GPA.</p>

<p>

First, you’ll be repeating college courses, which does not look good.

</p>

<p>Exactly. Do not repeat a course unless the grade is lower than a C. Take upper division courses instead, and ace them.</p>
