Replacing an Easier Class w/ a Harder One

I took physics for liberal arts majors about 6 years ago and got a C+. This semester I'm about to finish up the college physics series and should receive As in both.

Can these replace the physics I took 6 years ago grade-wise?

Nope. They're two different classes and both will show up on your transcript. You can, however only input the best grades onto aacomas to calculate your gpa to make yourself look the best you can in the screening process. When you submit your transcripts though both will be visible.

cool, so I can use my A in college physics when calculating my science GPA instead of my C in liberal arts physics?

Maybe it can be. I think aacomas will think "close enough," but they might not because the curriculum is different like say "chemistry for health sciences" and "general chemistry."

Yup, although you'll have to input both on your aacomas, you can choose which one you want to count for your prerequisite physics.
