02 Standard Plus: Classes meet on a modified standard schedule for approximately 230-270 minutes of instruction per week over a 10-week term for six units (or a proportional amount of time for less than six units). Additional class time is used for recitation/discussion/applied sessions.
03 Standard Plus Additional: Classes meet on a modified standard schedule for approximately 280-350 minutes of instruction per week over a 10-week term for six units (or a proportional amount of time for less than six units). Additional class time is used for recitation/discussion/applied sessions.
