I am a University Sophomore as of the 2012 Summer Quarter and I received a 3.27 GPA during my freshmen year in total (3 quarters). The reason this happened was because I received C’s in two math classes that I took (one per quarter) and this happened because I was heavily concentrating on my Physics classes (which I got B+ and an A in).
Hypothetically, if I show improvement (as in 3.6+GPA) from here on out, would you recommend me retaking those two classes in the upcoming Summer Quarter and have the letter grade replaced in my GPA even though the letter C grades will still appear on my transcript?

Also, I am highly considering changing my major from biology to microbiology because after extensive research on both topics, I have come to the realization that microbiology interests me much more than regular biology and I believe that I will do better in those classes.

Thank you for your feedback. All feedback is welcome.
Sincerely,
Pre-Med Sophomore
