<p>I'm currently coming around my third semester at community college while performing pretty damn well. The only problem is this small dent I have in my transcript; a D from lack of attendance. It's from an incredibly easy business course I should of done well in, but regardless it is my fault for abusing the professor's policy. I'm curious how this going to fare while I'm applying for schools.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Wrote this right when I wokeup, so I apologize how vague it was. I’ll elaborate better. If I retake a course I previously received a poor mark in, how is a good college, let’s say for example NYU, going to take it? I understand that my GPA will be reevaluated for the better grade, but it doesn’t change the fact there is a fat D on my transcript…</p>
<p>Are you applying for fr or transfer admissions?</p>
<p>If it’s from a business course and you want to transfer to be an English or history or science major, it will be less damaging (kind of like a bad grade in a gym class). If you’re trying to transfer into a business school, it will be more problematic. If the business school is very selective, you probably should think about other options. </p>
<p>I’ve heard that Stern is quite competitive; they’ll have plenty of applicants with no bad grades. So you could use a Plan B.</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies. </p>
<p>I am applying as a transfer.</p>
<p>It’s always good to hear when your dreams have been crushed. Well Alright. I’ll have to do dumb down my school selections… I would of thought they’d look passed the poor grade if it was an A the second time around.</p>
