Okay so I recently got admitted into sonoma state university, and im about to finish senior year, but I might end up with a D in my biology class. I failed it first semester freshman year with a D- and didnt realize I had to retake it until senior year after applying for colleges, so my dumbass decided to enroll in a college class to make up the grade. I was so wrong to do that because I couldn’t keep up with that class and the rest of my highschool work, so now I might end up with a D in that class and im really scared sonoma might pull my admission because of that crappy grade. I got an A in that class second semester freshman year though, and my current gpa is a 3.5 because the rest of my classes I have had good grades. Do I still have a chance of getting admitted even though I just have one D in biology? Please do not give false information and bring my hopes up. Thanks to whoever replies.
I’m a bit confused. You “failed” it first semester freshman year with a D-, but you got an A in that class second semester? I don’t understand, maybe since it’s 5 AM I have a brain fart. Anyways, to answer your question, I’m not sure. I think you should be okay, but is there any chance you can pull it up to a C?
No I only consider me failing it first semester since I got a D-, but I passed second semester with an A. So this year my counselor told me I had to retake it so I chose to do it at a nearby community college but now I am sure my grade will stay a D. There is a chance, if I pass my final exam with more than a %100. And i usually average my exams around 70-75%. Sooo i really doubt I will pass this one with a 100%, but it’s still a couple weeks til final exams.
So was it a two part class or one class over two semesters?
Is Biology the only lab science class you will have taken? If so, then you need to pass this class since you will not meet the minimum requirements. If you have taken another lab science class and passed, then SSU may be more lenient. Unfortunately your most recent grade will be used for your CSU GPA calculation and will definitely affect you if you get a D. All I say is study study study and that grade up to at least a C.
It was one class over two semesters i think since i took it all of freshman year… but this year i only took first semester of biology since that was the only grade i had to make up.
No, I also took physics in junior year and got good grades for that class, so will that help?? Wow I really hope ssu is leniant or I really don’t know what I’ll do with my life after i graduate haha
Shouldn’t you have passed then if you got an A the second semester and it was one class all year long? Maybe it’s just me, but that seems weird to me. If you had a D and went to an A second semester, you should have at least gotten a C which is passing. Anyhow, try your best for a C at this point.
One D so you need to go to community college.
No it wasnt just a long year class, i had it all year but the two seperate classes counted for seperate grades and I got a D first semester & and A second semester.
