Electives credits question?

Question

How many credits are required for electives? My school says 3.5, but thats hard to believe since it makes no sense whats so ever. Half a semester in your senior year? I'm just wondering this two things, one been how many credits are required for electives and two is my school the only one that does this or does yours require 3.5 credits to?

Answer 1

These are the minimum requirements at my son's school--they say you should take more if you are planning on college

4 in English

3 in Social Studies (including U.S. & the World)

3 in Mathematics

3 in Science

.5 in Practical Art (Business, Tech. Ed., Family & Consumer Science)

.5 in Fine Art (Visual, Musical or Performing)

1.5 in Physical Education

.5 in Health

.5 in Graduation Challenge

3.5 in additional core academic classes or electives

Seems like you aren't alone.

I think the 1.5 PE credit is includes a  half year of "health" (the .5 credit).
