I am currently taking a rigorous honors philosophy course with a very rigorous professor. The entire course is made up of three test grades and that is it. I recently took a test and feel as if I performed badly on it because of the time constraint. Thus, I wish to drop it. At my university, when you drop a course you are assigned one of two grades. You are assigned either a WP(Passing at the time of drop) or a WF(Failing at the time of drop). I spoke with my professor and he assured me that he would give me a WP no matter my grade on the test. Thus, I was wondering how bad would it look to medical schools if I drop one course throughout my college career. Also, would it be better if I retook the same philosophy course except regular instead of honors and made an A in it. I know I can make an A in the regular class because it is much easier. Would medical schools then overlook the previous drop of the honors class? Any feedback appreciated from personal experiences or experiences of a friend?
