[00:00.00]M: Hi! Are you busy right now?
[00:03.31]W: Oh, hi, Sean. There’s a meeting at two-thirty, but I have a few minutes. [00:07.80]What can I do for you?
[00:09.34]M: Well, I wanted to talk with you before I went to register for next semester. [00:12.99]That’ll be my last term here ’cause l hope to transfer to the university next year.
[00:17.21]W: Great! Have you applied to the university yet?
[00:20.01]M: Not yet. The deadline’s not till March 1.
[00:22.83]W: Right.
[00:23.34]M: But I was, uh, I wanted to check with you to see if there are any other courses I still need before I transfer.[00:30.08] I think I’ve filled all the requirements, but I, uh, just wanted to make sure before I register.
[00:36.51]W: All right. Let me pull up your record.[00:39.46] Let’s see now ... Sean Howard. Here we are. [00:43.08]Hmm. All right, it looks like you’ve got all of your English and math credits, so you’re OK there, as well as your humanities and, uh, social sciences. [00:53.12]But for natural science ... hmm ... you took biology in your first year, but I don’t see anything after that.[01:00.14] You’re required to have at least one more natural science course before you can transfer.
[01:04.92]M: Oh, really? I thought I needed only one science course.
[01:09.19]W: No, sorry, you need at least eight credits in natural science, and that means two courses.
[01:15.96]M: I didn’t know that. OK. Then I wonder which course I should take. [01:20.76]What do you recommend?
[01:22.45]W: Next semester ... let’s see ... it looks like astronomy, botany, and ecology are all being offered. [01:30.15]There’s also a course in meteorology for non-science majors.
[01:34.67]M: Meteorology? Do you mean, like, the weather?
[01:37.65]W: That’s right.
[01:38.50]M: Hey, that might be kind of interesting. [01:41.41]I always wanted to know how they forecast the weather.
[01:44.47]W: Then that’s the right course for you. [01:46.52]Oh, and, Sean, it looks like you also need two credits in physical education.
[01:51.31]M: Phys. ed!
[01:52.31]W: Right. You’re required to have four credits, and you’ve only got two so far.
[01:57.18]M: Oh, boy. Well, OK, that shouldn’t be too hard.[02:01.30]Maybe I should take golf—that is offered in the spring, right?
[02:05.26]W: Golf? Uh ... yes, it is. Do you play?
[02:08.42]M: Not very well, no. I’ve only played a couple of times, but I need to do better than that.[02:13.76] My boss plays golf and he’s always talking about it.[02:16.71] It would be nice to know what he’s talking about!
[02:18.99]W: Then you’d better take golf.[02:20.92] You’ve got to play golf with your boss!
[02:23.24]M: OK, OK, you talked me into it! [02:25.66]Hey, thanks for your time. [02:27.43]I appreciate your help, and I’ll get out of your way now.
[02:30.53]W: Glad to help, Sean. Good luck with registration!
