What the heck is PAV: PHYS ED on the daedalus phys ed course selectives? Is that advanced volleyball or regular phys ed?
Are they strict about the 85 average for the class as a requirement to get in the class? What if i missed that cut-off by a few points?

Yeah, PAV is advanced volleyball. If you don't choose a gym elective, then you will be placed into regular phys ed
Eh not too sure about the 85 avg for gym

The 85+ average is probably not a requirement...
"Be advised that you will be enrolled in your choices based on your Phys Ed average (ranked accordingly high to low)."

just saying i had a 90+ avg in gym and i didn't get any of my choices. I ended up with regular gym. So just remember even you might qualify there is a chance you won't get anything.

An 85+ average for any of the phys ed electives is a requirement.

I would say to just put down an elective regardless of your average.
You really don't want regular physical education gym with freshmen, sophomores and juniors. Or do you?
Last year they specifically blocked out students with under 85 P.E. averages from selecting electives.

Does the P.E. average include Health?

The P.E. average is ONLY Health! Physical Gym classes are NOT averaged but they show up on the transcript!

However in terms of cumulative average, Gym Classes are NOT factored - though for course placements in school, they may be used at the discretion of school administrators in order to provide the fairest method utilized for selectives placement.
