From what I've heard, the exam takes ~1 month to show up on the transcript. Since it is *pre-req with 2100, I don't know if your plan would have worked even if they did offer the test. Did you not want to take it previous semesters, or are you maybe a new transfer? If a transfer perhaps you have some way to show you understand the content (like a similar class that GT didn't accept) and could talk to your advisor?

Yeah I switched majors from BME, which previously did accept 1301 in place of 1371. Main issue is that I have cs 1301 and 1331 credit but rhe ChemE depth is refusing to allow it to count.

Is the core thing new? I was told that 1371 was a prereq and I couldn't take 2100 unless I had 1371.

I'll see what my advisor says .

Ah, sorry I mistyped - it is a pre-req hence the problem with waiting deep into the summer semester for the credit to show.

I don't know what the content difference is between 1301 and 1371, but you could try and ask the advisors - worst they can do is say no.

Also for longer-term plans, ChBE offers most core classes all 3 semesters, so if you want to knock a few out in a summer to shorten the timeline, you can probably find a way to do that. The exceptions I can think of is that Thermo and Fluids in the summer is only at GTE, and then for senior-level design and controls is only twice a year.
