Overcoming a bad GPA

[matchmaker]

I've literally looked at hundreds of master's programs. 99% of them require transcripts from all colleges attended. If they find out you didn't submit them all, your degree could be revoked. It's also unethical and unfair to other applicants. Many graduate schools only look at the last 60 credits even though they still require all transcripts, but you won't have a GPA for those if you completely test out. Really, 3 Fs shouldn't hurt your GPA that much. If you forwarded that transcript to TESC, every graduate school will now know you attended it because the credits earned will have the school's name above it on TESC's transcript. If tou don't submit that transcript to TESC, that degree can be revoked too.

This is good to know. If I test out of TESC nearly 100% (except the capstone), wouldn't the F's drastically affect my GPA? The F's aren't in any required subjects, so I have no need to retake them. The only class I was going to take with a grade was my capstone, so I'm not sure how else I can level out the GPA unless I retake the failed classes.
