LOW UNITS. HELP.

Disadvantages = Summer in order to catch up on those taking regular classes.
Well, if you pass the EN 10 Diagnostic Test, you could move on to EN 11. The EN 10 prof would have to tell you when to approach the English Department Head to find out your new block.

Not sure with MA 1 though, but I'm guessing it's the same.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm not sure if there is a diagnostic test for English which could possibly make you transfer to Regular English, but during my freshman year there was certainly a Math diagnostic test which should determine whether you will be placed in Basic or Regular Math. And yes, I believe you cannot run for DL at the moment granted you are lacking in your units. You will have to make up for those subjects in the summer semester assuming that you are still in the basic level thereafter. Hope that helped.

THNX. i was wondering, what is the small possible units in order to run for DL?

There is a diagnostic test for English :D

If I remember it right (or if i heard it right), you must at least have 15 units to be eligible for DL. (not sure with the numbers though)

paano yung DL? ibig sabhin po ba nun, if you dont have atleast fifteen units, it's impossible to run for DL?

hi, yup. to get into the Dean's List, you must have at least 15 units and your QPI (Quality Point Index) must be 3.35 and above :)

...So kung Basic class (MA1) ka, wala talagang unit yun? Kahit 3 yung nakasulat sa AISIS? :|

Sorry, i think i was wrong. As I look for description of Ma1 i found this:

" This is a noncredit preparatory course taken by students who do not have the required background for Ma 11"
This is from here

So i think that even if it has 3 units, it is still not credited.

(Upperclass, please correct me if im wrong. thanks)

As far as I know, with the exception of Ma 18 basic track, all basic subjects receive no credit.

hey shan!

pero, even if hindi credited yung Ma1, then we'll still have 15/18 units diba? so okay lang? safe pa?

hah, basta, let's just pass the diagnostic test para wala nang gulo =))))

Kung nasa regular class ka na ng En11, meron paring diagnostic test? o-o

EN 10 Diagnostic Test was balls; the essay in particular. I had a hard time there, since it's about something I don't care about. I couldn't even bola properly. :P
