College Course Selection?

im trying to accumulate some college credit before i get into college, just to get a head start. and i was wondering which would be more beneficial for college transfer credit.,if i should take american lit 1 or interpersonal communication(aka speech). if you have any suggestions please do tell, and anything on college related issues would surely help given that i really have no idea about college and transfering credits etc. thank you so so much for you help and advice!

College Course Selection?
You need to contact the college you plan to attend. The course that would work best for you is dependent on the requirements of the degree you plan to pursue. It would really suck to get a credit for a class that you will not be able to transfer to the college you plan to attend. I know MANY people who have lost credit on a transfer because they didn't check with the institution they planned to attend BEFORE taking classes.





Call the university you plan to attend and ask to speak to a freshman counselor. Ask if transfer credits will be accepted for the class you want to take. Also ask them if they accept transfer credit from the institution offering your credit.
Reply:Either , because are likely to be required at any college, or at least it will fill a General Education Requirement (GER). Actually, any "Intro to" class would be beneficial.
Reply:Communications is pretty standard across the board as a general requirement, so speech may fulfill that basic requirement. Check the college you plan on attending on transfer credits and such things to make sure you can use it. If not, lit 1 would work as a basic elective probably. If you can use it, I'd do the speech though.
