    college Q

    I'm in a full yr elective right now of a class that is not in my field of study. There is a course I would like to take in my field of study at the same time.
    To withdraw from this course at this point would result in a W (withdraw) on my transcript, though I received an A in the first semester.
    Do you think it is a big deal to get a W?

    They used to have WF (Withdrawl Failing) vs. WP (Withdrawl Passing). Having a WF looked bad. But you young faggits just have W, and that's ok.

    Well if you're gonna apply to Yale Law School, you better think again
    Also, you'll need a letter of rec from a U.S. Senator.

    Nah, only if they're surrounded by Cs, Ds and Fs.

    Do you want to go to grad school or just looking to get a job after your degree?

    A Withdraw doesn't mean shit. Any potential employer does not see your college transcript.
    Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came and never left your side.

    Sometimes people have "personal issues". You can always use that as an excuse and you don't have to explain anything.

    W does not look good on your transcript. It is overlooked if your other grades are stellar. But having several W's shows that you have other issues going on. I would pass on you.
