Retake a B?

<p>I had a pretty rough finals week and did alot worse than I would have hoped in some of my classes. I wound up with a B in linear algebra/diffeq even though I got high As on the first two exams because I absolutely bombed the final. I am and econ/math double major with a minor in IR thinking about eventually pursuing graduate studies in economics, decision science, social science, or IR. </p>

<p>The rest of my math grades are:
A Math Stats
A Applied Statistics II
A- Calculus II
B+ Multivariable Calculus
B+ Proofed Based Probability (also did worse than expected on final..)</p>

<p>I have a 3.75 GPA currently. Is it worth retaking Linear Algebra/Diffeq to get an A?</p>

2

<p>No. Don’t waste your time or tuition doing that.</p>

3

<p>I’d be really surprised if your school even let you retake it.</p>

<p>What a waste of time and money.</p>

4

<p>Are you even allowed to retake a B? Not sure if most schools even allow that.</p>

5

<p>There would be no benefits to that. Accept the B, but also reflect on why your final didn’t go as</p>

6

<p>planned. How will you study differently in the future?</p>

<p>The CC is strong with this one</p>
