Failing a course

I failed biopharmaceutics... because I have a plethora of extenuating circumstances, my professor is allowing me to remediate. I have to come up with a remediation plan that demonstrates that I understand the material that requires "very little effort" on the part of my professor... has anyone ever had to make up their own remediation plan before or have any suggestions?

How long do you have? I haven't failed a course, but I've had some friends that have. I believe they read the notes and studied on their own and were given tests weekly (for a 5 week course). You may be able to suggest something like this?

I have the whole summer. The professor said whatever I do has to require "minimal effort" on his part, so it sounds like him giving me exams is out of the question. I've never heard of anyone having to make up their own remediation plan, so I'm completely at a loss.

What if you write some kind of research paper or power point presentation? or a few papers covering the topics he went over in class? 🙂 just a suggestion. Good luck

Was it multiple choice? If so, retake the final. A scantron takes a second.

You are quite lucky to have that opportunity.

Where I am at, you get to retake the final if you passed all of your exams throughout the semester but failed the final. But if you don't pass it a second time, you get an F despite what your final average is.

Otherwise, you fail the class, you repeat the year.
