vandy has a policy about taking a course over that I think is pretty great. Your original not great grade remains on your transcript for all to see…but your doever goes into your GPA…this is somewhere in a handbook. I like the fact that students are encouraged to master rather than quit…sometimes it really does come easy the second time or maturity or bad health was the issue first round

asking about level of difficulty is a legit question however look at a school’s graduation rate and take heart…the admissions people know what they are doing. Finding your talent and your weaknesses…is part of life at college…ie mastering high school math will not equate to math major status in college for many kids…I like that Vandy encourages people to try difficult courses rather than avoid things that might threaten their GPA
