Question about UCI Transfer Req's for Computer Science

Might get a C in my C++ programming class at a CC and I just noticed this update from their transfer req’s for the Donald Bren School of ICS -
“Please note: For Fall 2019 applicants, a minimum grade of B will be required for each major’s required courses below.”

Will that C hurt me in being able to transfer and if so, should I bomb the Finals so I can get a D and retake the class?

Unfortunately, it does seem like you would have to retake it for a B or higher. CS courses are not easy so it would be best to really grind hard and make sure you’re getting all the help you need. I regret not seeking enough help myself.
