<p>Would it be a bad idea to do both of these courses at the same time? I have to retake A202 so I could do it over the summer but I would like to finish it sooner. Will I have trouble balancing the two?</p>
<p>Did you take A202 before A201. Probably not a great idea to do that.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t take both the same semester, especially since you did one last semester and wound up dropping. Both the same semester would be tough for anybody. I know they strongly discourage honors students from taking honors A205 and A207 the same semester (they are both offered only in Spring this year), and those are the best students in Kelley. </p>
<p>What about doing A201 in Spring at IUB, then take A202 in summer at cc and transfer to IU?</p>
<p>I thought about that but the problem is I got a F in A202 (I missed a test because of a misunderstanding regarding dropping of the class) and have to retake it. If i took it at a community college, the F would be on my transcript. Any other suggestions?</p>
<p>Maybe retake A202 in Spring, using the extended-X policy to get rid of the F from your IU transcript, then take A201 in summer at cc.

<p>Kelley’s position on extended-X is described on page 34 of this bulletin.
<a href=“Indiana University Bloomington”>Indiana University Bloomington;
<p>It seems like the F would not appear on your IU transcript at all, after you retake the class with the extended-X in place. Kelley would keep your F in your academic record, but only insofar as it applies to “scholarships, admission [you are already in, though], graduation, and all categories of academic standing for current students.” If you don’t get a Kelley scholarship, and most people don’t, then nothing is lost. And “graduation and all categories of academic standing for current students” is nothing, too, if you retake A202 and get at least a C. In other words, I don’t think the F, if replaced with an extended-X grade, would have any effect at all on your academic record. You get the F removed from your IU transcript, and that is the important thing. The IU registrar-- not Kelley-- determines what appears on your transcript and your gpa.</p>
<p>You could email or talk to a Kelley advisor about it and see what they think, too. But I think you need to definitely do the extended-X for A202 this Spring or Summer, before taking Icore in Fall 2012, if that is when you are taking it.</p>
