How lenient for Dual Enrollment

Hey. I an OOS student in high school. Anyway, my high school forced me take some college math courses since I had completed the highest level of math (AP Calculus). Since I was getting state funding for college courses, I decided to take an engineering course as a personal intrest.

Needless to say, I’m not the best math student, and I came out with some pretty average grades, that is, a B- in Calc. 2 and a C in Engineering. Again my high school is mkaing me take Calc. 3 (My high school requires 4 years of math.) and my college G.P.A. is around a 2.4 without a grade for Calc. 3.

So in order to meet their College G.P.A. requirement, I have to get a B- in Calc. 3. Its doable, and I am trying really hard to obtain such a grade, but I was wondering what would happen if I don’t, that is, would LSU be slightly lenient towards this G.P.A.?

My high school GPA was a 3.6 last semester, and I have a 33 ACT. I did obtain some scholarships, and honors admission and I really hope that these grades don’t affect them.

Kinda of worried, so thanks for the input.

Edit: Will they take into consideration that these courses are considered as some of the hardest courses in college? (Multivariable Calc is not fun >.<)

Second Edit: Will it matter if I don’t wish to seek credit for those courses? I do wish to the math again in order to get a better grasp of it, and the engineering really doesn’t apply to my desired major (Chemistry).
