Some schools require a calculus course and most schools i look at require a 3 credit calc class. I have taken a 3 credit one and 5 credit one. I got an A in the 3 credit one and I got a B in the 5 credit one. Which one will schools calculate in their pre-pharm GPA?
 
why did you take it twice?

i would imagine the schools will look at the one they required.. ie the 3 unit one

They will calculate both. Unless the school specifically states they take the most recent or better grade, they calculate all courses that qualify as pre-pharm, science, or overall GPA, depending on the one they're calculating.
