Yep, this. Although unfortunately, the F still shows up on the transcript, along with the new grade. So that stinks. But at least he got to retake it (with a much better teacher, btw) and really learn what he had been missing the first time around. That was the most important issue for us.

Having the F show up followed by a recovery grade is far better than accepting the D. Shows the student made an effort to learn the material as opposed to just taking the D which is the easy way out.

Some colleges except recovery grades and others do not.Although the high school make out the new recovery grade, most colleges recalculate their GPA using their own criteria
