Transcript text: When you re-take a course that you could not complete in the prior session, the new grade will replace the prior "F", for GPA purposes.
True
False
Solution
Answer
The answer is True
Explanation
Option 1: True
When a student retakes a course that they did not complete successfully in a prior session, the new grade typically replaces the previous failing grade ("F") for the purposes of calculating the Grade Point Average (GPA). This is a common policy in many educational institutions to allow students the opportunity to improve their academic standing.
Option 2: False
If this option were true, it would mean that the original failing grade would still be factored into the GPA calculation, even after the course is retaken and passed. However, this is generally not the case in most academic policies, as the intent of retaking a course is to improve one's GPA by replacing the failing grade.
