Transcript question

<p>How bad does it look if I retake a class? There will obviously be a blank spot from when I took the class the first time, does that look bad?</p>

<p>After talking to an academic adviser at my school today I learned the original grade WILL still show on the transcript, but not be counted towards my GPA. Any insight on this situation? (Lets say the first grade was a D and the when the class we retaken I received an A)</p>

<p>Anyone have insight on this?</p>

<p>I suppose how bad it looks depends on the institutions you are applying to. Harvard? Probably pretty bad. Bowling Green? You’re fine.</p>

<p>What about taking a breadth class P/F?</p>
