First let me give you some information about myself. I am currently a freshmen in college who is planning on getting an undergraduate degree in Physics. During my junior/senior years at high school i took two years worth of college courses. The problem is that I got a D in an upper level English class. This brought my grade point average down from a 3.8 to a 3.6.
I know that if I retake the course, the new grade will replace the older one. However, I do not know if graduate schools will replace the new grade with the old grade or not when they look at my application. For instance, I know that medical/pharmacy schools only average the two grades out. Do grad schools do this too? I also would like to hear your opinion on whether you think it is worth retaking it or not. Do grad schools care about your non-science classes?Any help would be great, thanks.
