13. What’s the Big Deal about D’s and F’s?
Fs = 0 Credit = Recovering the credit!
Ds= HS school credit BUT 4 year colleges will NOT accept Ds in a core subject on your High School transcript, so if you get a D and want to go to a University, you will have to re-take the course! Includes AP classes
D is for Diploma
C is for College

This is a great plan for many!
