A. A student who fails a required course must repeat the course. B. A GPA is a figure representing a student’s accumulated grades. C. Each admissions office determines the length and content of the essay. D. For example, a GPA of 3.0 is a “B” average for all of the courses taken.
E. A student graduates after he or she has successfully passed all the required courses. F. The ACT tests English, math, reading, science reasoning and optional writing.
G. Voluntary participation in these activities show students have learned valuable life lessons. 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)
