Common App Courses & Grades

I have a question about my Courses & Grades for Common App. There was a semester my freshman year where I did not do well in my classes so I retook the courses later throughout high school. However, all of the original courses for that poor semester are not listed on my official transcript. Should I still include these courses and the grades I received or is it ok not to include them as they are not apparent on the official high school transcript? Thank you.

You should not. If it’s not listed on your official transcript, there is no need to report it. (especially when it’s a weak semester)
