I need to make a decision by 5 today.
If I change intro anthro into PASS/FAIL my predicted gpa for this semester alone is 3.433 (B+, B+, A-).
If I get a B+ then my predicted gpa for this semester will be 3.4 (B+,B+,B+, A-)
If I get an A- then my predicted gpa for this semester will be 3.5 (B+, B+, A-, A-)
B+ = 3.3
A- = 3.7
My logic is that if I PASS/FAIL anthro I miss out on the opportunity to help my gpa by 0.067 points if I get an A-.
If I get a B+ then I would have hurt myself by 0.033 (3.433-3.4) or should I look at it as if I lost the opportunity to get an A- which would hurt me byu 0.100.
my current grade in the class is a 90 average flat. if i put a lot of work in it then I will get an A-, I dont think I can get an A with hardwork. Most of my friends are getting B- and C+. There will be 0 scaling.
yes you ppl will think im a freak but i care because my gpa is borderline.
another reason why I wanna cahnge anthro too PASS/FAIL is because it is so much damn reading. 5 books a semester and 5 papers and 3 tests. its a freaking intro class. im taking organic and two other intensive bio courses all with their labs.
advice? please give reasoning...
