　　PART 1 PASSAGE 1

　　Listen to part of a conversation between a student and an academic advisor.

　　W: Mr. Patel, I’m here for my appointment.

　　M: Come on in, Michelle. What can I do for you?

　　W: 01 I want to talk to you about possibly dropping one of my classes.

　　M: Which one?

　　W: Organic Chemistry. I really want to do well in the course, but right now I’m not sure I can even get a passing grade in the class. I flunked the first midterm.

　　M: How many credits are you taking this semester?

　　W: 15, but if I drop O-Chem, I’ll be down to 11 credits.

　　M: You know that you need to take at least 12 credits a semester in order to be considered a full-time student. Is there something going on in your life that’s interfering with your school work?

　　W: 02 Well, I wouldn’t say it’s interfering. I play on the varsity basketball team for the school, and I’m having a hard time juggling my basketball time commitments and my school work. And I know I need to maintain at least a C average to keep my basketball scholarship.

　　M: I didn’t know that you’re here on a basketball scholarship. I guess keeping your grades up is very important to you. So, what position do you play? How is the season going?

　　W: I play point guard for the team. We’re doing pretty well so far this season. All of our starters are returning from last year, and I think that we have a good shot at making it to the playoffs.

　　M: That’s great. How did you manage your time last semester?

　　W: Pretty well, because basketball season hadn’t officially started yet. 02 Now that it’s winter, I don’t even have time to sleep.

　　M: So, when would you take O-Chem again?

　　W: I was thinking of taking it during summer school, when I can concentrate fully on the class and not be distracted by anything else.

　　M: 03 If you drop O-Chem, you need another course to meet the 12-credit requirement to keep your scholarship, too. Any thoughts on what you would take instead of O-Chem?

　　W: I was thinking of taking a seminar or survey course on a pass-fail basis for one unit.

　　M: That would work. However, the shopping period for classes is over, and you’ll have to get your O-Chem professor’s permission to drop the class. Here’s the form to drop the class. Have your professor sign the form, and return it to the registrar’s office by Friday.

　　W: What about the class I need to add?

　　M: Do you have any specific seminars in mind?

　　W: No, not really. I haven’t had a chance to look over the course catalog yet.

　　M: 04 There’s a very interesting seminar that does a survey on the major world religions. Or if you really like music, the music appreciation seminar is taught by a very talented graduate student in music. I’ve heard only positive things about the seminar, and all the students ell me that they learned so much about music. I don’t think either class would count towards your major requirements, but I think they might fulfill one of your breadth requirements.

　　W: Okay. I’ll check out both of those seminars and see which one fits better into my schedule.

　　M: While you’re here, you should take the form to add a class.

　　05When you figure out which seminar you want to take, have the instructor or professor sign the form and return it to the registrar’s office as well.

　　W: I feel a lot better now that I’ve talked to you.

　　M: I’m glad I could help. 05 Just make sure that you return those forms to the registrar’s office y Friday. Otherwise, you won’t be able to drop O-Chem, and you’ll be stuck with the lass for the rest of this semester.

　　W: I’ll make sure that I return the forms by the end of this week. Thanks again.
