Hey guys, so I’m a current junior and have worked super hard to the point I have a 3.93 and ochem 2 is my last pre requisite and I’m currently taking it. However, taking it online due to COVID has been killing me. My grade is currently a 81.5 and just overall struggling with the class with 2 exams to go. My school is allowing us to now SU all of our classes if we like and I’m tempted to S/U ochem 2 instead of taking a hit to my gpa especially when I’m risking a C if i cannot maintain. I usually would be confident but i am really struggling with this online methodology. I contacted the school I’m most interested and they said “Obviously we would prefer letter grades. However, because of the situation right now, we will accept S/U for this semester.”

Is it worth it to SU? Or should I just hope that I can maintain a B through the semester?
