Although those won't kill you, they won't be overlooked. Be prepared to explain them in an interview and have A's and B's to back you up academically.

Mine were totally overlooked. After seventeen individual interviews (not 17 schools, just to clarify), never once have my not-unsubstantial W's been brought up.

That doesn't mean don't prepare for it, just in case; it just means it probably doesn't matter too much if the rest of your academic record is a-okay.

PLEASE USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION. There are so many of these "W" threads it is mind blowing.

I had 3 W's, got multiple II, never brought up once, and got accepted. Please, use the search function man. I'm beggin' you...we get the same questions over and over again.

For the record I did do a search before I made this thread. I just wanted to get some fresh input on the topic. And you took the words right out of my mouth. U MAD???!!!!

I'm less mad than I was yesterday 🙄. Regarding your question, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Two "W"s are not really enough to show any kind of negative academic trend. Have a simple explanation prepared in case they ask, but otherwise don't draw any attention to them.

I had a few W's. No one ever mentioned them.
