That class that you failed, if you take away that class, were you still full time? For example, in some schools, you are considered full-time if you take three classes, so if I take five classes and fail 1, I will have four classes left, which still makes me full-time.

This link has some past forums with the same situation.

Yes I’m a full time student but I don’t know the point that we are not supposed to take course retake untill or unless it’s a last semester now I got to know that will it be a problem in getting pgwp??

If you were still full-time after failing that 1 class, you should be fine. Course retake doesn't affect PGWP, it is the full-time status.

Can you please tell me in brief what full time exactly means because there were 6 courses in one semester I’ve failed in one course and took that course again in scheduled break

In your current school, how many classes/courses are considered full-time?

Six courses
I see. I am doing some research to see if failing courses affect the status since most people say, failing one course, you will have five courses left, which now makes you part-time. This is because some school requires the student to pass all classes to be considered full-time. I suggest you talk to your international student office/admission office and ask if the status does change if a student fails 1 class.
