Isn’t this your first semester in the business program? Many schools evaluate your GPA requirement based on year end, not semester or quarter end. Have they already told you that you’re in danger of being kicked out? If not, I would check with your counselor when you get back. It may be that if you can maintain the 3.25 average for the year you should be fine. It sounds like your school expects people to have Bs and above; a B- is actually closer to a C than a B but the good news is that you only had two of those and you know where to make improvements.

Retaking calculus may be worth it but if you think that you can nail the next semester’s classes (B or above) then it might be better to focus on those, assuming that you’ll be judged based on your overall gpa at the end of the year instead of your gpa right now.
