The administration officially ruled to remove ClinTox from our GPAs and clear those unfair failing grades. It has been a long and draining fight but we finally achieved the result we needed.

We, the 5th Year PharmD students of MCP, feel that the Clinical Toxicology course is unfairly affecting our GPA when it is not a required course for any other year. There was no final scaling, relatively low grades for our class, and many people got D\'s. We petition that it is not counted towards our GPa and that the students that got D\'s are not held back accordingly. We feel this petition is necessary because there is no appropriate channel through school (i.e. Course Survey) in which to voice our concerns and complaints.

Seeing this much support behind our cause is the only thing keeping me going after these draining weeks. It is difficult to keep pushing when the administration stays silent but I am not walking away from this fight.

This class was brutal and the grading made zero sense. We all worked so hard and getting punished for a course that isnt even required for everyone else is just wrong.

Listen to the students for once. We deserve a fair shot.

SO UNFAIR. I barely passed this and it makes no sense that it weighs so heavy on our overall grade when no other year has to deal with this.

D's for almost an entire class?? That shows there is a problem with the teaching not the students. Fix this.

Ridiculous. My gpa is tanking because of this one class. Nobody knew how to study for these exams because nothing was clear.

The administration needs to step up. We already have enough on our plates without this garbage dragging us down.
