[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is a "D" in a class treated like an "F"? When I went to school a "D" still got you pass the class, just lowered your GPA. If they think she failed the class give her the "F". But if she got a "D", she deserves her diploma.[/quote] There are many colleges and universities where a D is passing for credit, but will not count towards credits required within your major. If you get a D in a class counted as an elective, it counts towards graduation, but you could not count it towards your major. So, when I went to school in Electrical Engineering, I was required to have something like 24 credits in the EE department, 24 credits of engineering, 24 credits of math, 24 credits of sciences and 128 total credits. So, if I had a course that was included in that leftover general 32 credits, a D would count. If it was in any of the other areas, it would not count. I graduated 30 years ago, so this can't be a foreign concept to people.[/quote]
