Answer 26

@Here_to_Help15 On that retention thing, the way the layout of the graded assignments looks to me, the course grade comes from all the grades the entire year rather than taking the average of the the two semesters. You could ask how the course grade is computed.
I'm thinking that it is not the average of the two semesters which means it will be easier to pull up your grades if you do better work the second semester.
