I took a health class in high school and was wondering if I can include it under coursework on my UC application. Is it relevant enough to include or should I leave it out?
Yes, you can include your health class under coursework in the UC application. When filling out the application, it's important to provide a comprehensive view of your academic history, and that includes courses like health class. Although it may not be regarded as highly as core subjects like math, science, or English, it still gives admissions officers a more complete picture of your high school experience.
Remember that the application provides space to list a variety of coursework and you want to accurately represent your academic transcript. If you took the health class for a grade, it's a part of your high school experience, so it's absolutely appropriate to include it. However, prioritize core subjects and relevant elective courses first, especially if space becomes an issue in the application form. Good luck with your UC application!
