This was a bad semester for me (fall semester of sophmore year). I am taking a humanities class, physics 1, chem 2, and calculus. The grades I think I'm going to have is a B+ in humanities, a C or C+ in physics, a C in chem 2, and an A- in calculus.
The problem is with the two C's. I don't know about retaking physics 1 because the professors at my school are terrible and I don't think I'd understand physics anymore if I retake it (the professor i'm taking has had many complaints against, the school told us not to bother that by the time they decided to take action, we'd be long graduated. So he found out and blamed us for it, saying that it's our fault we don't understand physics, etc etc). In chem 2, I understood the material well, but my problem is that I didn't study enough for the exams and got confused on problems on the exam. That's my fault and I should have studied more.
My question is, should I retake chem 2? I have no idea where I would fit it into my schedule, next semester I'm full with intro to creative writing, organic chem 1, cell biology, skeletal keys, and us history. My school has grade forgiveness where we can sign up for it, retake the class, and if we do better we replace our other grade fully (but we only get two chances). My GPA before this semester was a 3.8 (I only got 1 B last year including summer for chem 1.) I just don't know if it's worth retaking or not. Please, don't be harsh on replies, I know it's my fault for my grades.
Thank you for any help.
