Question on entering grades

Hello, I tried searching but I couldn't find a satisfactory answer. Here is my current situation.

I took Calculus freshmen year and got a D, currently I"m retaking Calculus (10 years later) at another college. I have a very high B as of now. I plan to submit my apps within the week well before fall grades are posted.

How do I enter my grades into AACPMAS as a currently repeated course...is that even possible?

Should I just wait for my grades to be posted? I still wouldn't know how to enter that into the website because it's from two different schools. Suggestions?

Thanks!

You will have to enter the D from before and there is a section to enter that you are taking Calculus now. I BELIEVE it's only considered a repeat if you are taking it at the SAME school as before. So, you will just enter it as a class you are currently taking. Call AACPMAS though to confirm...they are extremely helpful.

Whether to apply now? I guess that would depend on how much your new grade is going to affect your gpas. If it is going to pull anything up from sub 3.0 to over 3.0, I would probably wait. Otherwise, hit submit and you should have the grade by the time of your interview. Also, I believe you can update your app (for grades) in January...but again, a great question for the folks at AACPMAS.

You mention grades, so are you taking more classes than just Calculus? This would factor into the decision as well, if these are the first classes you've taken in 10 years and it's a full load of science courses, I would probably wait. Sorry, not really enough info to give the best advice.

Thanks for the response, I'm also taking Physiology (I have an A). I just took the classes to boost my grade/prove to myself/having something to say during the interview.

I think I'll wait for my official grades because these classes will raise my from my cGPA 2.97 to 3.01. My sGPA is already a 3.0, physiology might bring it up like .01
