Hey guys,

I'm a 3rd year at my university, and I am freaking out because my plans turned sideways.

I received a C- in Chem2A (general chemistry first quarter), and a lot of PT schools want at least C. I can't retake it at my university because a C- is "passing" for them. I can't retake it at the nearby community college because they don't do plus and minuses and a C is passing for them as well.

How did everyone retake their classes that they technically passed?

Please help out. Thank you in advance.
 
I just retook it. It really doesn't matter what's counted as "passing." I'd do it at the community college if they don't use +/- that way a C is a C and counts not a C-
 
Like low5059 says, it does not really matter what the community college counts as passing or not passing when it comes to retaking a class. I had a B- in Biology and I retook it at a community college to get an A. As long as you have your money and a transcript that shows a passing grade for the prerequisite course of the class you are trying to retake, you will have no trouble.
