#failed grade

[yorkulife]

I failed a course last year. I took it again this year and passed. Is last year's grade supposed to be in my degree progress report?

No, but it will still be on your transcript.

I'm quite confused/frustrated right now, I have a course and I'm failing it at this point. Like in the 40% range, it's a difficult course for me. I'm taking 24 credits in total and would be taking 18 credits in total if I drop that course. That's not a lot of credits but it's like I have to choose between that or a bad GPA.

Really. :0 Hmm, I would say to double check with the course department and if you’re able to enroll (without eventually being de-enrolled), then you’re good.

Hey, is an E a fail?

Yes, it means "marginally failing" and you will not get credit for the course.
