Regular credit courses are for students who have already taken this course in entirety and have not passed, or who want to get a better understanding. There is no grade given; only Pass or Fail. Advanced credit courses are those courses in Grades 10-12 that students want to take for the first time or have passed but want to repeat to improve their grade.
