retake the exam / class


Explanation:
retake the exam or retake the class
DP significa dependência de alguma matéria onde você não foi aprovado. Mais claramente você tem que refazer a matéria inteira desde o começo. Você pode pegar uma DP se não atingir a nota suficiente para se aprovado ou se não tiver a presença mínima nas aulas.
Pegar uma DP, além de atrasar seu curso e ser uma grande chateação, gera também um gasto adicional!

agree  Vidomar (X): How about "retake a subject"? I think that "failed" is implied.
