I am planning on retaking a few classes after I do my Masters programs and before I apply for DO schools. My question is I went through my undergrads list of classes that they accept for transfer credits at different institutions and picked out the ones that I want to replace. Will this meet the criteria for grade replacement? I am assuming it will because if my undergrad school would accept them for there class wouldn't it work for grade replacement too?

Thanks
 
bumping this to see if there is anyone who has an answer. I have emailed aacomas but am still awaiting a reply

It's difficult to give an absolute guarantee without seeing the course descriptions. However, the general rules are:

1) The new course has to cover the same (or very similar) material as the old course.
2) The new course has to consist of at least the same number of AACOMAS units as the old course.

If your undergrad school would accept them for a class it sounds likely that it would work.
