Question: are ds okay in college?
Answer: My cc, like most colleges, doesn't give incoming transfer credit for courses in which a student got a 'D. ' The standard is a C or better, even though a 'D' is officially a passing grade. Technically, a 'D' is passing, but it's a sort of a we-don't-really-mean-it pass. A grudging pass, or perhaps a mercy pass.
