i just declared a history major at University of California, Riverside. The reason i did this is because it is the only subject that i don't fuck up in. Paperwork was done in less than an hour and processing should take a few business days. Also met my new academic adviser, who told me all sorts of great info about my new major and that i don't even need to take a math class to graduate because i took a CC math class in high school. So now im stuck in Calc 9A and am most definitely gonna take it pass/fail. She also mentioned that since i have over the required units that i look into studying abroad, and guess which country came into mind? i'll do that maybe in my 3rd year but for now i have to focus on 2 things: raising my goddamn GPA and transferring to UCSB.

Confusing. So your academic advisor was misinformed? You know it's really hard to transfer from UC to UC. With a crappy GPA, forget it.
Oracle comes in, Scvs go down, never a miscommunication.

He's saying that he's enrolled in a class that he just found out is useless for him, and I'm guessing that it's past the drop deadline so he can't just bail, so the next best thing is taking it pass fail.

Anyway, cool that you have chosen a major. Hopefully you'll like it. Also, I went to UCSB for my undergrad and loved it, so I wish you luck with transferring.

You can still drop your math class, can't you? I thought the deadline was like next week...or tomorrow or something.

Anyway...next step, join UCR's CSL+ team? (:

Wow that sucks :/ At my school you're allowed one free withdraw from a class at any point (after drop-add period). After that, though, it counts as a withdraw-fail if want to drop a class after drop-add.

What does taking something pass/fail entail? I assume you aren't graded by percentile, but what are the implications? My university never had that.

You get the credit for the course as long as you pass, but the grade is not included in your GPA.

How many courses can you do this with? What is the % allowable. Seems like a sweet gig.

Varies from institution to institution, there are restrictions based on the course relative to your major/minor/degree, how many you have taken P/F, and other factors.

Still seems pretty friggin sweet. Every one of my courses counted toward my GPA. Being able to P/F would have knocked out some of those duds.
