Retaking Stats with Biostats?

So I got a C+ in statistics (geared for psych majors) a million years ago. I'm sure you've heard this story before.

I've been told that I should take Biostatistics the 2nd time around. And I just wanted to make sure that this was a good idea.

Also, I was curious how re-taking a course was viewed in terms of my GPA. Do they average the two courses? or do they just input both into my GPA?

Somebody told me they average the two courses, but the thing is, I took stats for psych at my undergrad institution, and it was worth 4 credits. the stats i'm planning to "re-take" it with is called intro to biostats and it is 3 credits.

Since all three are different classes I would think they would just take the letter grades from all three to calculate your GPA.
