What do you think?

Thanks. And maybe I'll just stop worrying about it for now and concentrate on studying for CSP which I definitely have to take.
Even if your transcript never says it, you will have credit for Exam DP. I'm not sure how they handle pre-2000 exams on the transcripts, but I know I have several 2000-system elements on my transcript, and I don't expect them to change it to "FAP Modules and FSA Modules - passed".

You'll likely have the 50 PD credits remaining on your transcript, and everyone at the SOA familiar with the redesign should know that PD alone translates to Exam DP in the new system.

So, just focusing on worrying about CSP.
