I just got back my midterm from my microbiol class. I got a 3.0. Do you guys think I should drop the course and take the W? I still have two weeks to change my schedule. If this were gen chem, then I would just drop it without hesitations. However, since microbiol is an upper-division biol class, I don't know if the W is better than the 3.0.


PS I have 3.65ogpa and 3.55sgpa.


Any thoughts?

3.0 on a scale of 10 or 100???

or are you talking about 3.0 GPA?

I'm assuming you mean 3.0 GPA.

I think it's easier to explain a low grade than a W...for me at least.

In second year I once dropped a class because I got an 83 on the midterm.

These days I'd kill for an 83 more often than not. I had unrealistic expectations in first/second year haha. 😳

Haha. I cried the first time I got a low A in University.

W should only be used when failing or actually necessary.
