I have been sick for about a week and a half and I have missed a lot of work for one of my courses. Even though its excused, I am considering withdrawing from it because of all the accumulated work from all my other courses.

How would a withdrawal look in my fall grades? (I have only 1 other withdrawal)

Why not take it pass fail. After my interviews are all said and done I'll have missed several weeks of school. That's a weak excuse, just do the work!

eh I think it would depend.

It would never look good, but if you were holding an acceptance on dec 1. I dont think they would pull the rug out from under you
 
I wouldn't risk it. It's quite a comfortable (and expensive) "rug".
I was going through this same dilemma earlier in the semester. I hated all of my classes, but I was absolutely DREADING one of them. But I stuck with it. Now I hate my classes even more... but at least I'm not jeopardizing my chances at D-school--for that reason at least.

I doubt it would jeopardize anything, plus I have a good excuse.

I don't think that a week and a half of being sick is a very good reason to drop a class. Work harder.
