I always ask advice on here and thank you so much for the answers.
I was signing up for community college classes to retake my undergrad classes. Since this is a loophole to getting a better prequisite gpa, I would need to take 2-3 math classes before taking physics. I was wondering if it is worth it? Or would it be too risky not to raise the gpa further, given that I get A's on the other retakes. Instead, I think it would be easier to retake biology with lab and get an A to further improve gpa.
I believe the whole physics series is calculated in the gpa, not just the first and 2nd physics courses. This series only had 2 labs with 3 lectures. =gpa 3.6

Why would you have to take more math classes at a community college? Did you not have the math pre-reqs for Physics at your original school? If you did have the appropriate math classes you could just send your transcripts over to the CC and they should waive them for you and you can take physics again.

Yes i know this would sound like the best way but I don't know if you know this but its illegal to retake a class below a C- ANYWHERE. Therefore, if I send my transcript and they see that already took physics, they will not allow me to retake it. So I cannot send the transcript in even if I did complete calculus math etc... Unless you found other information?
