<p>@lindyk8 I believe the three repeat rule applies only to classes taken at a UC. </p>
<p>From the UC Admissions website: "For transfer applicants, a course may be repeated if the student received a grade of D or F. UC does not limit the number of times a transfer student may repeat a course in which they earned a D or F. "</p>
<p>The ultimate lesson here is one all community college students should heed: don’t fall victim to the long-standing stereotype of a cc student. I can’t speak for university systems outside of California, but all the opportunities are blatantly available and require only the committed adherence of the student. Once you, like me, exhaust and exploit those opportunities, you’ll find yourself desperately trying to analyze and decode varying policies that may salvage your education. Be smart.</p>
