torquillThe University of Puget Sound worked on a semester system, but assigned credits by fractions of a full 1-credit course. When I say that one of the classes on my transcript was a "quarter-unit class", that does not mean that I lied to you about the school having semesters, and that you have to go into your spiel about converting quarters to semesters. Thrice.
When I restate it as "this class was point-two-five of a unit", I should hope you could do more than throw your hands in the air and profess that you don't know what I'm talking about and don't want to.
DVC Counseling: you get what you pay for.
In other news, I got some extraneous credits knocked off the transferable units list, and I think I have a handle on how to calculate my cumulative GPA. If the old bat didn't get confused more than the four times she screwed up while I was watching.

Most of my quarter-unit classes were band and such, while lab courses were one credit. A full load was four credits. Most times I was pulling 4.5-4.75, because of the music classes.
As for having to show students where their heads are -- she'd have to find her own first. :/
