Hours earned?

[joro]

I'm finishing up the Texas A&M application and on the school listing section it asks for hours earned. Do I just list the total hours as indicated (e.g. 4.0 hour classes, 3.0 hour classes) or is there something more to this? Does hours earned mean points per credit hour? (e.g. A- would be 3.7, a B would be 3.0.)

generally, yes, it means credit hours.

but when in doubt, check with them. sometimes a U will have their own way of doing things.

I'm just confused with it because on my unofficial transcript, it shows the hour and credit hour multiplied together to create the grade point. Like 4 hours * A (4.0) = 16.0 grade points.

I got in contact with the school and after a few email exchanges they told me to put the total number of units I took.
