I have a few W's on my transcripts. Some were in prereq course. I explained them reason for them (work) in my app. Does anyone know if this will hurt me? Has anyone had an interview and been asked about it? Just wondering. Thanks.

I have 4 or 5 W's and in my 1 interview so far I wasn't asked about them

No, but it shouldn't really make a difference as long as you have a good reason...

stop worrying about the past. Worry about what you can do in the present and the future. Do good in your classes, try to limit your w's to what you already have.

Obviously, if a candidate has a stellar DAT, good extracurriculars, a few w's but a good showing on their transcript over the past year or two, they are a strong candidate.

Sorry, I didn't mean to give you the impression I was being harsh with my words. I was just telling you to worry about what you can do from this day on out, I have a similar situation to yours except mine is worse. 🙂

My bad, my response was pretty lame. I appreciate your advise. What is this "worse" situation you are in?

I think I have something like 7-8 W's on my transcript...😳 Mostly because I signed up for online or distance classes that I totally forgot about.

Yeah but your unbelievable DAT and GPA should drowned that out.
