I have a question for those of you who know how to do this...

I retook a class. My grades were C-/A-. It was worth 4 units. I want to calculate my cumulative GPA. Do I make the average grade worth 8 units (since I took the class twice), or only 4 units (so the average grade counts once)?

Thanks!

You average it as if you took two different classes, worth 4 credits each.
