Sort of a dilemma

I guess I can’t consider academic renewal as my lowest grade thus far has been a C (2 in fact which is equivalent to a 2.0 here) and I did not fail any courses in order to be given the option to take it again. Out of curiosity in situations like this is it more desirable for a person to pass a course even though they will receive the lowest possible grade for a pass or to fail the course and be given the option of taking it again?

I’m considering just staying at McGill as I would rather try to mend things here but transferring is still a side option I guess. Is there actually any benefit to transferring at all under these circumstances? I’m content with the university itself and have no problems with it but was originally just thinking of doing so for the sole purpose of my GPA. Does anybody have any other suggestions on what else could be done should I stay (if any)? Thanks for your replies.
