Too many Fs in transcript, how will that impact me?

Also, normally a college will allow you to retake a course for a better grade, but it will not remove the old course - it will still keep it on your transcripts, but not count the grade. So other schools WILL be able to see that you repeated the course, and will see the old grade. It just won't be counted in your GPA at that school. Some schools may be different, but that's been my experience with a number of different schools I've looked at - state university, state college, community college, private schools, etc. All the same.

And NONE of them would allow you to replace the bad grade with a CLEP exam.

I would look at your school's policy again, and probably call and talk to someone to get clarification.
