Well D's and F's are failing, so you'd have to retake them. If the programs you're looking at allows that. It's gonna vary between programs greatly.

Side note: why so many threads to ask essentially the same question??

It's not even cross posting because they're uploading them to the same section. I think the mods need to merge the last few posts from this account lol.

Yes, I had an A in Statistics until the last week of the term - when I got a D on the final. I should have petitioned the instructor to allow accommodations as I had an injury as well as a a couple of major situations happen in my personal life, but I thought since I'd done so well in the course so far I'd be fine. I was wrong and my final exam grade dropped me down to a C in the course. I spoke with the programs I intended to apply to and most were willing to allow a retake so I took the course again and received an A score. I was fortunate that the programs I applied to were willing to allow a single retake and replaced the previous score with the new one. Not all programs operate this way, some will average the two scores, and some do not allow retakes at all, so make sure if you are planning to retake a course for higher score you know how the specific programs you are applying to will factor in the retake score.
