ahmadmz Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 Does anyone know how UofA med school factors in repeat course in GPA Calculation if first time was an F? Only looks at first try, only looks at last try, keeps both in calculation or averages the two? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmm5777 Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Does anyone have an update on this? I've asked them about 5 times now and they keep telling me that they only consider the grade from the first time a course is successfully completed. What does successfully complete mean? If I failed a course the first time and then retook it and got an A, does the F still count even though I didn't successfully complete the course? TIA!

adhominem Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 They probably count the F because you successfully completed the course (i.e. did not withdraw). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedicineLCS Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I replied to this in another post (pasted below). Suffice to say, I REALLY doubt they'll let you drop an F simply for retaking because of the wording of the two policies, but can't say for sure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
