orlandoborn Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 Hey guys! I began filling out my grades for section 2, and picked the last 60 CH option for my GPA calculation. I noticed that I am given the option to fill out a third successive 30 CH year. Does anyone know if I have to fill this out? I already filled out my 1st and 2nd successive years including winter 2020, so I'm not sure whether or not to leave it blank. Thanks!

Student98 Posted July 15, 2020 Report Share Posted July 15, 2020 Sorry unrelated but is first successive year winter 2020/fall 2019? I was under the impression 3rd successive year meant 3rd year of study. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression 3rd successive year meant 3rd year of study. I was talking to admissions, and they told me to not put a third successive year as my gpa is being calculated from the last 2. I put first successive as the fall 2019/winter 2020 year and second successive as the year before that. I felt that made the most sense since we had to list it in reverse chronological order!

PirouetteCacahuete Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Hey, I'm so confused. I understand that I should enter my most recent year first, but I am at a loss how to enter individual classes or if it matters. Should I enter going from the bottom of the transcript up, or vice versa? Should I start with Winter first, then Fall? Or do they just care that the last 30 CH are entered first? I might be overthinking this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, this might be a stupid question, but I was wondering where you saw these instructions? I couldn't find anything that mentioned them preferring that you list your most recent courses first.

It says to enter them in reverse chronological order starting with most recent courses. It states this at the bottom of the online transcript entry! projectomaha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premedwithadream Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 So does "1st successive 30 credit hours" mean most recent 30 hours? So if I just finished 3rd year, my 3rd year would be my "first" successive 30 credit hours, and 2nd year would be my "second" successive 30 credit hours?

yeescience Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 I accidentally missed that instruction and listed my courses/grades in chronological order instead lol (4th year --> 5th year --> MSc). Do you think this would be a big deal worth emailing adcom for...? I feel they would just check the official transcripts anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed them and they said that the most recent year would be the 1st successive 30 credit hours. So your 3rd year would be your 1st successive, and 2nd year would be your 2nd successive!!
