should I take a 2nd W and keep a gpa of 3.5 or get a GPA of 3.44 without a 2nd W?

It turned out the professor is horrible for orgo lab II, I can probably get a B or B+ in it if I do not drop it, and by doing so my gpa goes down to 3.44 (noting I will be applying to dental schools right after this semester).

Or, should I drop the lab, get a 2nd W (first W I had in community college where I retook the course and got an A) and by doing so I get to apply with a gpa of 3.5. please help 🙁

I would avoid getting a W... if you can manage to pull a B or B+

W's really don't look good.

The only time it is debatably more favorable to receive a withdraw is if you get a D or an F otherwise.

Don't drop it. You can always make it up with good DAT scores and other stats.
