failing a course

<p>it's my first term at dartmouth and i'm going to get an E. :(
do people know if i can repeat the course? if so, will the E grade stick with me?</p>

<p>which course is it?
did you just take finals?</p>

<p>a gov class. yeah i’m really going to fail the class. like a definite E. what should i do???</p>

<p>i am pretty sure you can repeat it…</p>

<p>will the E grade stick with me?</p>

<p>Yes, it will stick with you. From the ORC:</p>

<p>“A student who has failed a course may elect it again. In this situation both of the grades are recorded and hence both are included in the cumulative average; only one course credit is earned. The same general principle applies to Credit/No Credit courses.”</p>
