Pass/fail classes acceptable?

Hey guys, I searched for this and couldn't find anything. Maybe I'm the only one in this boat 🙁 I took physics 1 pass/fail last semester- a few weeks into it I got cold feet and went into an "I don't wanna be a pharmacist!" phase and couldn't drop the class, so I applied for S/U. I've tried to contact all the schools I'm interested in about this but have only been able to get a response from one. I was kinda hoping to know if I would need to retake it for a grade asap so I could do it summer b. I passed it so technically it's a C or above- so I'm not sure if it matters that it says "Satisfactory" and not "C" on my transcript

Basically, has anyone had any experience with taking a pre req pass/fail, and was it necessary to retake for a grade? If not, did it hurt your app at all? Thanks! 😀

If it is a pre-req class, you must receive a C or higher. A pass/no pass grading unit will not suffice.

^agree.

You need to have a letter grade (C or above) in your prereqs. They'll probably make you retake the class for a letter grade.
