Hi,
In my first year, I did badly in a few classes (Cs and D's). In one of my classes, I have an incomplete grade. Is it favourable to repeat the courses I did badly in or to just go on?
Thanks

Re: Bad first year
Are these classes for your major? If so, I would repeat. Especially if you have plans for graduate school or professional school or something.Colorado155 wrote:Hi,

^ this, but if your grades show a strong upward trend the school will take that as a positive anyway.PathIntegrals92 wrote:Are these classes for your major? If so, I would repeat. Especially if you have plans for graduate school or professional school or something.Colorado155 wrote:Hi,

I chose not to address a D in real analysis 2, taken in my second undergraduate semester. All I would have had to say about why my real analysis 2 grade sucked would have sounded like I was making excuses (no discrete math, started with real analysis 1 in my first semester, right off the bat). However, it's my only grade below a B-.
