Today EnglishPod is going back to school! That's right, we are taking our classes for university in this lesson. Come and learn with us about university courses, credits and the difference between a major and a minor. It's a very educational lesson today so don't miss out!
A: Excuse me? Is this where I register? I’d like to
sign up for my courses for next semester.
B: Yes, of course. I need your student ID please.
A: Here you are.
B: Okay, Susan. It says here that you are a business
major and you are in your second year. Is this
information correct?
A: Yes. I do want to take some additional credits this
year to get a minor in psychology.
B: Sure. That’s not a problem. Do you have the list
of courses you want to take this semester?
A: Yeah. Here’s my list. I’m not sure if the class
schedule will allow me to take all of them though.
B: Yeah, that’s perfect. What about the subjects for
your minor?
