Hey guys,

So I'm currently in my second semester of my freshman year and I'm in some sort of a dilemma. So currently, along with my general chemistry 2, MOlecular Cell bio, and calculus 2 I am also taking an english class( last one).

However , the class timings are extremely awful for me as I have to work. So I am contemplating wether to drop the class, and take a W or wether to stick with it and risk a B. It's a really straight forward english class, and I'm sure if the timings of the class didn't collide with my work, I could easily get an A.

At the same time, I don't want medical schools to think I can't handle the Cource work; so there is also another late start required- GE Cource I can take that fits really well with my time this semester as it's an online class, and I'm positive I can do well in it. So would it be alright if i drop the english and take the other GE? Then, I can take the english class over summer or the following semester as well.

I really don't want a B in an easy english class, that j know I can get an A in! But work!

You should drop it if it's hard to work it in your schedule. A 'B' wouldn't really be the end of anything. As a freshman make sure you are sincerely learning your sciences pretty well, so MCAT is easier.
