How would an unsuccessful credit-only attempt look on your transcript if you take the course again for credit and do well (say you get an A or B)? I know it does not factor into your GPA but it still shows up.

It's not a problem at all, especially if your record is fairly good


most jobs/grad schools only care that you have the degree in hand, good gpa, top notch references.
