    Listen to a conversation between a student and a academic adviser.
    Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer. [br] What degree has Miss Wu got now?
Academic adviser  How do you do, Miss Wu? Please have a seat.
Student  It is very nice to see you! Thank you.
Academic adviser  Now then, let us look at your transcript.
Student  OK! Here you are!
Academic adviser  It is very clear and solid. You have your Bachelor of Arts in English and now you want to get your Master’s in Education, right?
Student  Right. I got my Bachelor of Arts in English last year.
Academic adviser  Why do you want to get Master’s in Education?
Student  Because I am interested in Education. But I don’t know what 1’11 need.
Academic adviser  You will need 36 credit hours, of which 15 must be from the English Department and 15 from the Education Department. For the remaining six credit hours, you can either write a thesis or take two selected courses.
Student  You mean that 36 credit hours are the minimum? Right now, this is very confusing to me, but I am sure it will straighten out in my mind as I learn more about it.
Academic adviser  Let us program your courses. Since you have had English Literature, you should take American Literature and American Prose and Fiction. Your transcript indicates that your English background is strong, so I don’t think you will have any problem with it.
Student  OK! I loved English Literature and got an A. I am also interested in studying American Prose and Fiction. How many credits can I get for each course?
Academic adviser  Three. You should also take two three-credit courses in the Education Department. I suggest Educational Psychology and Audiovisual Methods and Aids. That will give you 12 hours altogether which is the minimum for a full-time student.
Student  Excuse me. Actually I am a part-time student. I am sorry I don’t have enough time to take all the courses, although ’m attracted by them. So I would like to audit one course.
Academic adviser  That’s right. You have been appointed Assistant Head Resident at Western. How many hours do you have to work?
Student  Twelve hours a week. Since this is my first time in the United States, I don’t want to fail any classes and would therefore prefer a somewhat lighter program. In addition, I am a part-time student, so it is very hard for me to select all the courses. In order to pass the exams smoothly,  have to choose lighter ones.
Academic adviser  That is correct. In fact you must maintain a B average to earn your Master’s. In other words, if you get a C, you will need an A to balance it out. If you get a D, it takes two A’s to raise it to a B average.
Student  Oh! My goodness! It is so complex. I definitely don’t want to get any D’s or F’s.
Academic adviser  Yes, you are right.
Student  I’d better go slowly but surely, like the tortoise in the fable.
Academic adviser  That is a good idea. Which course do you want to audit?
Student  American Prose and Fiction.
Academic adviser  Are you aware that even though you won’t receive any credit for an audited course, you still pay the same for the other courses?
Student  Yes, I am. I know that the professor will keep track of my attendance, but I won’t have to do any papers or take any exams.
Academic adviser  Fine. You are set now. Jim will show you to the Administration building. Good luck, and I hope you will enjoy studies here at Miami.
Student  Thank you. I am sure I will.
