I go to a school with quarters and plan on retaking classes once I graduate next June.

Say I wanted to retake Chem 2, would I have to take Chem 1 + 2 at a semester school?

Chem 2 only

Chem 2 only

Thanks, now.. what about Chem 3?

If you need to retake chem2-3, you will need to take two semester Chem and mark your all three quarter Chem as repeat.

Call the AACOMAS, they will be the ones calculating your GPA.

That makes sense, thank you.

True, but it's not that big of an issue. 🙂

Chem 3 = Organic chem I?

I'm on quarters (3 per year). Whatever you did at the end of Gen Chem was our Chem 3. 😉

It doesn't sound like retaking is as easy as doing 2 semesters for 3 quarters. But it's an old thread and their policies might have changed. It's worth making sure that the retake won't be futile.

I replaced one semester course with two quarter course. I contacted aacomas tech support and they calculated it for me in the right way.

That makes sense, I just find it odd by their explanation, Chem 2 or 3 could be replaced by Chem 2 (semester).

Give aacomas a call, explain your situation and they should provide you an answer.
