Hello everyone,
I've been out of college for about 8 years now and havn't used my sience degree whatsoever. I need to take/retake a couple of courses in order to be a competitive applicant. My undergrad was in biology and I had a 3.48 gpa. In calculus I got a C- so it looks like that will probably be the first class I'll be taking followed by the two organics.
For convience, I'm choosing to take calculus this spring at a local 4 year private college right across the street from where I work full time. It is not where I graduated from. Will medical schools take the average of the two grades? If I do not do well in the course (anything less than a B) do I have to report it? How would anyone know I took the course? The reason I ask these questions is because right now I'm a bit rusty not having taken a single class in years (it's been 12 years since I took calculus) and may need some adjustment to taking college classes but don't want to harm my transcript in the process.
Thanks,
Ken
