Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

What does that meaaaan? It's so bright, so vivid.
Surely it would be on the college's degree outline or something? I don't have any idea what you're talking about so I'm assuming it's a region or nation-specific thing (grade in what?) but if it's important it'll be listed in the requirements? I'm sure a pass would work if it wants a pass?

I think she means, like, GPA? Maybe?
I think my GPA was a mid-low 3.something when I got into my uni. I mostly got A's and B's in high school, with a few C's in the particularly frustrating classes in which I was unlucky enough to get horrible teachers. I actually don't remember if I passed creative writing or not... And anyway, community colleges probably have lower prerequisites while more prestigious ones (like Harvard etc) need much higher, and then maybe some personal connections too.
Or if you mean "What grade do you need to pass in uni classes", it depends. For me, except for classes very specific to my major (in which I need an A), you just need a D or higher, though that looks kinda bad and you really should try your best.
But Canada might be totally different so I can't really say for sure. Even in the context of schools here I'm not entirely sure what you're asking.

So, in the US at least, typically when courses list English as a requirement, they mean that you need that English credit, which you usually get by passing that English course.
College credit that can be gained in high school is usually received through AP courses or other test-based programs like that.

ring the college and ask; there's usually a line you can call for applying students that want information. in my experience this is the easiest way to get an answer out of universities.

Uh, I didn't do it.
It really depends on the college/what sort of school it is. For community and tech schools you can usually test out of taking generals, and for tech schools you might not even need certain ones, like for Law Enforcemen you don't need to take a math class, but you do need a college level English. And I think for AP classes for them to accept the credit you needed at least a 3 ont he tests... or a 2. It's been so long I can't remember.
