Need a little advice here. I am taking a history course (I have a double major with Bio and History) and one of the courses is shaping up to be much more work and difficult than I initially thought it would be and could negatively effect not only the grade in that course but others due to the workload cutting into other studying time. What would the impact be of having a W in a course that is not science related? Keep in mind, I probably would not retake this course.

Do you have any other Ws? Will you still be a full-time student if you drop? Are you involved in other activities/work/MCAT study this termr that will make you look busy on paper?
I have no other W's and yes, I would still be a full time student with the drop. Right now I am a TA for a course for the first time and have been doing some MCAT studying, which I have not done in prior semesters.

The W on your transcript won't hurt your med school application.
