【摘要】 Using the variations in repetition induced by the cancellation and reversal of a university GPA policy to correct for student selection, we quantify the effects of course repetition on below-average students’ subsequent outcomes. We find that students develop greater interest, persist longer, and perform better in a given subject upon repetition in comparison to their non-repeating classmates who receive the same initial-attempt grade. The observed repetition effects are particularly pronounced for the students who are exposed to the college environment and/or a subject matter for the first time and are entirely explained by the gains in learning.
