Hi y'all,

I was wondering if I should pass/fail my neurobio class. I am a nutrition major and will be applying this cycle. Neurobio is required by my major to graduate but is mainly an elective for dental school. My professor teaches in a way that makes it really hard to study (we design our own questions and if its too easy, she throws hers in which is hard). But basically, I'm taking 17 hours now and I'm trying to find time to study for my DAT.
If I pass/fail this class and take it again senior year, will it be looked down upon by Texas dental schools?

Thanks y'all

If you still have time to drop this class without penalty, I would say that is your best option if you don't want to do pass/fail. If not, then only if you're certain you can make a B or better, I would take it as a pass fail just to satisfy your degree plan. If I were you, I would not even bother retaking it. If its difficult the first time around, it will be difficult again. Repeated courses don't always look the best. I would suggest signing up for another upper level bio elective that you know is not difficult.
