Hi, I am going to apply this summer and have one problem now.
I got C- in physics lab, not the physics lecture. Do I still need to retake it?
And if I retake the lab during June after I send my application, Can I still be in the first batch?
Need advice.. Thank you in advance.
 
Physics labs are usually 1 unit, so probably not. Though, a school might have prerequisite cutoffs higher than a C-, you'll have to research. If you retake, you'll put it as planned coursework in your application and you'll submit an academic update in December.
 
Generally C or higher is required in all prerequisites, I would retake to be safe for all schools. Once you submit your application, you won't be able to add that grade (you can mark it in progress) until the academic update opens Mid-November but you can still submit your current transcripts and be 1st batch.
