I took Chem 241/341/442 (whatever) and got a really low passing grade in it. If I retake the class and get a better grade, will it improve my GPA and my transcript?
Your transcript will show you have taken the class twice, possibly with a better grade the second time. The second grade will not be used in compiling your GPA or your total number of hours. Therefore, retaking any course which you have already passed will not improve your GPA or your transcript (except to show your determination). It may, however, improve your performance in more advanced courses.
