So I just bombed an exam -- I mean a 66% on my first physical chemistry 2 exam. I have worked very hard in college to have a good GPA. My current GPA is 3.98 and I have always had A's + 2 A-. In order to get an A in this class, I need a 92% on the next 3 exams + final. I truly don't think that I can do that. In order to get an A- in the class, I need an 85% on the next 3 exams + final. Do I just drop the course? I can retake it next spring after I apply and am hopefully accepted and the grade is a little less important. I don't want to a B/B+ to ruin my chances. If I get a B that would make my GPA 3.96 and with a B+ that would make my GPA 3.97.
I would love advice on what to do.... do I drop the course?
