A student got a 5 on the Micro and a 5 on the Macro. What equivalency do they get and how do we add it?

ECON 110. 

  • Add Macroeconomics (exam code 35) as usual.  This gives the student 3 elective hours (AP 100R shows elective hours)
  • Add Microeconomics (exam code 34), and instead of clicking on Equivalencies, just type 01567001 (Course), 3 (Hours), P (Grade), then “Add Exams”.  This gives the student the equivalency of Econ 110
  • If Macro and Micro exam scores are already on, delete Micro and re-add with the changes stated above.
