adcomms and credit/no credit courses

Post by KA631LGH » Wed Jun 04, 2014 9:47 pm

So as the title states, how do adcomms view credit/no credit courses? I understand that these courses are not calculated into a student's GPA by the LSAC. But, I'm going to start my senior year in the fall and thus far I have completed two credit/no credit courses and this upcoming semester I am taking another one (this course is required for all undergrad students at my university). Upon graduation I will have taken 3 credit/no credit courses for a total of 5 credits combined. What I'm trying to ask is: do adcomms take into account how many of these courses an applicant has completed? (the more courses you've taken, the worse it looks on your application..?)

I don't think anyone will notice or care about this. It's just a numbers game. Three credit/no credit courses doesn't seem unusual anyway. I'm pretty sure I took at least a couple, and I didn't have any trouble with my applications.

HYS might care, but probably not and probably only if it's excessive. Three is not excessive.

it generally doesn't matter
