Hi guys i am currently a freshman in UOP. While i was junior in high school, i took a pre-calculus and an English class at a local community college, but i dropped them as i was having some family issue and got a W for both of them. I apply as a senior in high school to undergraduate universities. And didn't mentioned them and got accepted to undergraduate.

Should i retake them or forget about them as no one knows. And can pharmacy/dental/medical schools knows about them by any way. i already took calculus 1 and english my undergraduate ?

And if i will take them should i take them in the local CC, or in any instition

Any suggestions are welcome.

Isn't it on your transcript?
Whether it is or not, it will be safer to tell (and I highly doubt that would affect your acceptance at univ).
Also, go over to Allopathic side and don't look back.
2 W's won't keep you away from MD school.
Study hard and hard and hard.
 
You are required to send transcripts from any school you attended. Not sending the transcript with the 2 w's is unethical (or whatever).

It won't keep you out of anywhere because it will be like 5 years prior to applying. Just don't make it a habit.
 
You haven't heard of something called the National Student Clearinghouse, which keeps track of college enrollment and degree records. Don't omit those classes.
 
1. - The classes will show on your transcript so do not omit them.
2. - Retake the classes at whatever institution you like.

I don't know what this little trollers problem is but don't listen to them! If you want to go MD then go MD. If you want to go DO go DO. Period end of story. Being a great doctor is a personal choice not a program choice. Know the basis for each of the methodologies and choose the one that fits/resonates with you.
4. - Keep your grades high and enjoy your undergrad!
5. - Good Luck!

He absolutely does not need to retake them
A) It was years ago - heck he was still in high school.
B) He has taken higher courses and passed them. Why would he retake pre-calc when he already took calc in college.

No I agree completely! If he has already taken higher courses and passed them then he doesn't need to worry about it. Now if he needs to boost his GPAc that's a different story and not something he'll know till later on down the road. I was only answering the question of where to retake them not that he should. Thanks for catching that and clarifying!

Ahh gotcha.... I guess it was just the wording, it was early for me haha.
