If a sim gets an F in a class do they have to take it over?
I have a sim that got 2A+ and one F, not sure how that happened, but she ended up with a B average...... does she have to take F course again?

As mentioned above, they do not receive the credit and need to take another class for each failure, but it's not a repeat of the same class.
I had a soccer player who managed to fail out by having too many failed classes that dragged his GPA down until he went on probation and then failed that. I concluded that he failed out of university. Technically, he could wait and apply to go back but I decided it was time for him to move onto the next chapter in his life and he got a job. I played him in a group of students who all got different grades. I think he was submitting presentations too early before the end of the semester, but somehow he'd manage to flunk a class each semester multiple times. He did his school work but I think he was late to a few classes and may not have studied as much as the others.
Now, I'm careful about the athletics scholarship. There are also some sims whom I send on a "slow track" for whatever reason. They take fewer classes over a longer stretch of time.
My normal pace is 3 classes per semester for 4 semesters with the semester stretching over the weekend to allow a bit of time for "a life" and doing presentations, term papers or other extras. I've never tried 4 classes in 3 semesters because it does not sound like fun. If I have a very nerdy sim with a high Research skill going into university, maybe I'll try it.
