Should I retake math courses?

I have always been good at math, but wasn't seriously considering to major in math until junior year, and thus did badly in my lower divison math courses (got C+s in multivariable calculus and linear algebra). It was until upper div math courses when I became interested in math (I prefer doing proofs) and got A/A- in all my upper division math and statistics courses (abstract algebra, PDE, real and complex analysis, probability, numerical analysis). Does that make up for my poor grades in lower division or should I retake them while I'm still in college?
 
You should only retake them if it really helps your understanding. In math, it's generally assumed if you can do pde and analysis you have a good understanding of calc already. Im sure your interview knows that. good luck.
