"Exams can be retaken." Is this sarcasm? I suppose if you fail and have to retake the class, then you can "retake" the exam, but that closes a lot of doors when trying to get in to a good college. And most likely if you're "not dumb", you'll end up with a C on the exam and pass the class with a low grade, rather than outright failing it. In which case you would not be able to retake the exam.
