I don't think it's purely a matter of time. In all of my programs
(spanning 1984-2000) a "C" was essentially an "F" - you had to retake the
course and get a B or better. I don't know what would have happened to
someone who had that happen often - none of the eventual graduates did. I'm
fairly sure that at least one of my programs had a requirement to maintain a
certain average as well. But you couldn't balance a "C" with an "A" - you
had to retake courses in which you didn't make at least a "B", no matter how
many "A"s you earned.
