Failed an A&P class 15 years ago...

I did not drop it properly, and ended up with an F in the course. I was 18 and just wasn't thinking. Now here I am, almost 34 and serious about the prgram now and I am so nervous this is going to mess up my chances of getting accpeted. Anyone have anything like this come back and bite them in the butt??

    Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. I'm not sure where you are, but every school in my area only looks at sciences within the last 5 years, so even if you had passed it you still may have to retake it. Talk with an advisor for your program to be certain, but I don't see this as necessarily being an issue.

    I agree. I wouldn't worry about it. If you're transferring to another school, the course won't even transfer. Grades also don't transfer...just the credits. It depends on your school, but I know my school will only count the pre-reqs I've taken at their school. I'll get credit for the courses I've completed elsewhere, but it doesn't factor into my GPA. So, if I get straight A's this summer & fall...I get a 4.0 GPA. Again, check with an advisor at your school.

    I wouldn't stress over it. Most schools allow you to re-take a course once. Just get a fabulous grade on your re-take, you'll be fine :D

    Thanks! I did ask my academic counselor, and he said that I need to have my transcripts for that school sent over, otherwise it would cause problems for me in the long run. It was the only class I took there, nothing else will be on the transcript but that big fat F. He also said that it would also count as my 1 re-take, but still be factored in. He mentioned something about having it dropped after a 12+ credits of high scores? Sound right? When the time comes, I'll meet with him again and see what I can do about it. Until then, I'll try to not to sweat it! :) Thanks again.
