Okay so pass/fail is when you just need to clear a subject, not get a grade for your GPA—pressure off! S/NC (satisfactory/no credit) is similar. Add-drop is that first-week window to fix your timetable, and course-shopping is sampling classes before enrolling. Sounds flexible, na?
But matlab, my reality? In our system here, you fight for every mark—no "pass/fail" luxury. Your percentage *is* your identity for masters applications. I’ve seen seniors with 85% get rejected from unis they dreamed of. So to me, these US terms feel like a privilege of choice I haven’t had, but I’m grinding so maybe one day I’ll get to course-shop my way through a semester abroad!
