Dear SDN,
My apologies for being neurotic, I am about to graduate and this is the last class I am taking and it is a repeat of a class I took at another university. The university I attended prior to my current one had separate lecture and lab components; my current has them combined, much like at community colleges. At my prior university I took a course with its lab component and I did fine in lab (1 credit hour) but failed lecture (3 credit hours). Usually, at my current university, I would have to retake the lecture and lab since they are together as a class (4 credit hours) but the department head has decided to make an exception for me and as such is able to reduce the course hours to being only 3 credits so I won't have to take lab again. My question is, and I pretty much know the answer but just want to be sure, will grade replacement still work? I just kind of viewed lecture and lab as a whole and since I am only taking lecture over without lab I am not sure grade replacement will apply. I know that the course number (whether its upper level or not) does not matter but the credit hours need to be the same or exceed the previous course.
Thank you
