Another factor not to go... you already have 93 credits... you would have to start completely over...you would have to take 4 years of college again. And you may place out of lower level classes but then have to take harder classes instead and keep your GPA up.

i would say it is better for students to take a course again that they may not have mastery of than trying to get into a course they may struggle a bit with. You will have so much going on that being "ahead" in calculus will not be the awesome thing you think it might be even though up until...
