would retaking a few classes look bad on my transcript?
well in the first semester of my freshman year I basically aced all my midterms but gone through some really bad personal problems during finals and pretty much messed up everything and ended with c's in calc1, physics1 and chem1. I decided to retake all of them since the result wasn't necessarily because of my lack of competence but outer factors. In my second semester even though I already had to take calc2 and physics2 I also took cal1 and physics1 at the same time. (couldn't take chem1 because there wasn't any space left in my program). Now that my midterms are over and I have my results it looks like I'll get a bad letter grade for calc2 even if I ace the final. I know it's really early to decide on this as I still have my finals ahead, but I think I might retake calc2 with chem1 in summer school. Would it look bad on my transcript that I retook 4 classes in my freshman year? Do grad schools really care about freshman year grades or they mainly focus on 3rd and 4th years?
(also the reason I wanna upgrade all those classes is mainly to be able apply for a double major within my own school, not entirely for a better looking gpa)
(P.S. my school replace the old grades with the latest ones but they are still visible on my transcript even though they don't affect my gpa)
