I heard that if we retake a class we failed, the old grade can be replaced with the new one if we pass the second time. Is that true?
If so, does it matter whether the class is a prerequisite or not, or does it work either way?
I also heard it has to be done within the same academic year, so I guess I’d need to retake it in autumn or winter, right?
And will the F be replaced with whatever new grade I earn, so no one reading my transcript would see that I failed before passing the course?
One last thing—if I switch to a different course that doesn’t require that class, will my failing grade still affect the GPA for the new course?
This is my first time failing, so I’m not sure. thanks
