<p>So i am an incoming freshman who participated in Stony's ACE program. It was stupid of me but i didn't really focus on HIS 268 at all. I had some major laziness since i was a senior going into college. Anyways i did horrible in the course with a b-. i was reading into retaking the course and such and from what i understood is that courses can be retaken but require permission from my academic adviser and the course has an advisory prerequisite of hist 104. </p>
<p>so,</p>
<p>1) How do i found out who my academic adviser is?
2) Do these advisers give a hard time in retaking a course?
3) If it says advisory prerequisite, does that mean it is advised but really you don't need to have taken hist 104?
4) Do you recommend taking such a course in the winter?</p>
