Re-calculation of GPA
Hey

I was wondering how your GPA gets recaluclated once you retake a course?
Do the credits get added to the number of credits you already had or just an average of your two marks(after you completed that course again) comes into play?

Thanks

For your GPA it's added to the number of credits you already have (Like if you took a totally different course).
