I had a medical issue (had to go to the emergency room - corneal ulcer, recovery was like 4-5 weeks, could barely see out the eye for the first 3 weeks, computer screens hurt to look at, etc..), and withdrew from my online summer sociology class this past summer.
I'm applying to DO programs in the 2016-2017 cycle and I'm curious if I really need to re-take sociology this spring or next summer, so that I don't have that W on my transcript especially since it is surrounded by A's and A-'s from my DIY-Post-bac classes. I was planning on just teaching myself sociology instead, so I don't have to pay the extra 500 bucks for another sociology class & because, I need to start studying for the MCAT in Jan/Feb of 2016. I also just dished out 1300 for the UNECOM Biochemistry class that I'm starting next week - that ends at the end of January. I don't want to overload myself with work with Biochem, sociology, and MCAT studying, but if that W is going to look bad then I definitely will.
Other option is to take it over the summer, after applications have been submitted & just put in an update.
