LSDAS calculation question! Forum

[gumaerdu]

The lsac.org website reads:

"All grades and credits earned for a repeated
course will be included in the GPA calculation
if the course units and grades appear
on the transcript. "

For clarity, here is my question. If my transcript read:

-----------------------------------------------------
Course Name____________ Credits/Units__Grade
"Intro to Such and Such"___3.000_________F
-----------------------------------------------------

Then I can safely assume that an "F" will be calculated into
my grade. However, if my transcript reads:

-----------------------------------------------------
Course Name____________ Credits/Units__Grade
"Intro to Such and Such"___0.000_________F N
-----------------------------------------------------

Then it will not be calculated into my GPA because the
units reads zero?

Best,

Agreed. That line probably means credits earned in the class, not credits the class was potentially worth.

After a strict review of my unofficial transcript, I don't see anything resembling a 'credits attempted' score present.

What I do find is that one "F" class was retaken and has 0 credits/units next to it, while another "F" class was not re-taken and has 3 credits next to it.

Quite confusing for me.
