I have taken several classes as a part-time student in several community colleges as an affordable way to complete my gen-ed requirements. I was a naive freshman back then and I thought that since the grades would not transfer to my degree institution but only credits, my grades do not matter much. I ended up doing the bare minimum for the classes and getting a BC for an intro-chem class, and a B for calc 3. These grades are not reflected on my main transcript, which is right now 3.96 overall.
I am a physics and applied math major in my junior year, and I tend to do satisfactory in my major-related classes (mostly A’s). I want to apply to grad school after graduation. I recently realized that I need to submit all of my transcripts from every institution I gohave been to, so I am really bothered if my lack-of-focus on these summer courses will do me wrong.
