Overlapping classes

<p>I read this recently:
<a href="http://www.law.berkeley.edu/students/registrar/academicrules/academicrulespetition.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.law.berkeley.edu/students/registrar/academicrules/academicrulespetition.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Apparently, the school of law doesn't allow students to overlap their classes for credit.</p>

<p>Does this pertain to all majors, too? I have a chemistry lecture that overlaps with a physics lecture. Does anyone think this pertains to the College of Chemistry?</p>

<p>Also, if two classes overlap and credit is not given, does the student receive no credit for BOTH classes or just one? Which class would be considered for credit?</p>

<p>What do they mean by 'credit?' Does this mean having a grade on your transcript? Or units? Or satisfying a major requirement (can it appear on your transcript yet the college refuses to recognize completion of the requirement because of the course overlap?)</p>

<p>(I asked my advisor this question through e-mail, but I have yet to receive a response...)</p>

<p>oh yeah, here are my class conflicts: </p>

<p>As long as Telebears lets you sign up for it, they can't do anything about it. I know at least a couple individuals that have signed up for conflicting classes without problems (though not specifically in the college of chemistry).</p>

<p>thanks. I am sorry that i always ask these types of questions</p>

<p>So umm...what's the point of signing up for these classes? Planning on dropping one?</p>

<p>I think he's planning on taking them both.. I know people who've done it.. I did it for one semester, and it worked out fine.. especially since I knew going into it that I wouldn't miss much by skippin one of the lectures (it was math)...</p>
