| | Clarification request(s) and responseTrudy Peters (asker): 9:27pm Apr 27, 2004: Steffen - You mean like "transfer credit?" That's a possibility I guess. It was translated as "transcript," which I don't understand.
Maria Ferstl: 9:45pm Apr 27, 2004: The person concerned could also have studied physics (or some subject for which it was compulsory) before, so that he/she needn't take it again. That "transcript" sounds strange, but perhaps it is a word-by-word translation from another language. -
Maria Ferstl: 9:47pm Apr 27, 2004: In Greece the Greek equivalent is used exactly for the case of students who have begun their studies at another university. -
Steffen Walter: 9:57pm Apr 27, 2004: Exactly, Trudy, exam credits transferred from another institution or previously achieved exam results credited by RWTH Aachen, however you wish to put this. -

Explanation:
I'd guess the above here, which would fall between "nicht ausreichend" (fail) and "befriedigend" (satisfactory). Provided this is correct, he/she would have *just* passed the math and physics exams. (Big question mark, though, as "pass" would normally be "ausreichend".)
The second possibility would be that he/she took (and passed) the math and physics exams at another institution. These were then "anerkannt" (credited) by the RWTH Aachen.
