Since C has not sharps or flats your 1st 3rd and 5th would be c-e-g

you only count the notes in that particular key not any other ones

Hope I didnt confuse you


Aha!
I didnt know about the W W H W W W H part :mad: he didnt explain that to me.

So correct me, but the A major scale would then be

A B C# D E F F#

right?

Thanks!
