Im currently having problems with my philosophy grade. My test grades were 2 B+, 2 D+. Dont get me wrong. I worked hard for the essay that gave me a D, but some problem arose and my professor had to give me a D.
Anyways, the problem is.. the semester is ending and im at risk of getting a D for a final grade. Those 2 D's pulled my grade down. I could drop the class and get a W. if Im going to repeat the same class for next semester, will my W show up on my permanent record? Because if I get a F, D for the current semester, I could just repeat the same course and If i do get better grades next semester, My previous grades wont appear on my permanent record. Should I Get a W and repeat the course or continue to fight for a better grade now and repeat if i couldnt get a better grade than D.

Repetition of a Course in Which D, F, or NC Was Received
Students who receive grades of D, F, or NC in an El Camino College course may re-enroll in that same course one more time. Students will not be permitted to enroll in that course for a third time except under unusual circumstances and upon written permission of the division dean. Unusual circumstances are verified cases of accidents, illnesses or other circumstances beyond the control of the student.
The student, upon successfully repeating a course in which a grade of D, F, or NC, has been previously received, may notify the Admissions Office in writing. Upon receipt of such written notice, the student's transcript will be amended so that the previous grade and credit will be disregarded in the computation of the grade point average. The permanent academic record shall be annotated in such a manner that all grades assigned remain legible, ensuring a true and complete academic history.
