    Man, exams can go suck one. I'm so glad mine are over even though I probably failed all of them

    I intentionally failed a class this semester to avoid a drop in GPA. Take that class again next spring with easy teacher and use one of my grade exclusions

    Thanks everyone! I hope there is a curve...or she will be nice and throw on a couple of points for me.

    How does that work? At our school if we get F's...we get F's and our GPA dropped. I know this because I failed calculus, which was required for engineering, but now that I'm not in engineering anymore it still haunts me even though it's not needed for my major. Which I think is dumb. :( We get "repeat deletes" to retake the class and replace the grade, but for only like 9 credit hours...which is only like 3 classes. No way I can even use mine anyway since I can never pass the class in the first place.

    Yeah basically like that. I failed an anatomy class so I could retake it so my gpa took a dump for a semester. I retook it and still got a B :mad: but even though there is an F on my transcripts my gpa does not reflect it :D

    The average class here is 3 units and we can do this for 16 total units intentional or not intentional.

    But here, you have to make sure it looks like it was non-intentional or it could turn into a W (or WU forget what it is called), which is an "intentional fail" and that shows on your transcripts and is BAD for that to happen :rolleyes:

    This sucks, I took a basic computer science class just for a GE and it started off real easy until my professor fell off a ladder and broke his back a few weeks into the semester and we got a a sub for the rest of the semester. She had no clue how to teach the class and relied on the TA that hardly ever showed up. I though it would be an easy A, but right now it shows I have a 68% after failing the final but hopefully the two assignments that haven't been graded will bump my grade up to at least a C.

    I am not opposed to contesting a grade and I think you should. Sometimes I feel as if I should ditch this physical therapy stuff and go into law because I love proving a point :)

    Sucky! I've been done for a while.

    OMG I FREAKING PASSED EQUINE REPRODUCTION! Well, with a C but it still counts :D Now I get to take the foaling class next semester and foal out some mares and see some cute foals <3

    But I didn't pass genetics :( Stupid final exam screwed me over. x.x BUT I might be ok. It's not an "equine" class and we are required to get at least a C in every equine class. And my prerequisites for equine genetics say you need a D and above...so...I might be able to go with my D. I hope...as long as my adviser is correct...which sometimes I'm not too sure about.

    Everything else I passed!

    I passed everything except for that calc 3 class I intentionally failed.

    And to whoever asked how that works. The University gives us 2 classes in our undergrad that are c- or lower that we can exclude from our GPA, however we must take the class again. So I'm taking calc 3 again next semester with a different, extremely easy teacher who I should have taken last semester lol.
