I am currently a junior in high school. The class I am currently taking is now affecting my grades in high school because I am taking AP classes and involved in a lot of extracurriculars. I know that UC schools look at the community college grades after acceptance, so would the W grade put me at any risk?

As a partial answer to your question, your community college GPA will be considered when applying for admission to a 4 year university, but the GPA itself will not transfer. In other words, your GPA will reset when you enter a 4 year university. A "W" shouldn't have a big negative impact. You should, however, try to avoid a "WF" or "F". This answer is based on my experience and knowledge as both a higher ed faculty member and advisor. Good luck--- hope this helps!

If it extremely is a great lecture hall, then I doubt all and sundry will supply up you. on the different hand, it ought to no longer additionally be the perfect thank you to circulate approximately discovering a sparkling subject in the 1st place, noticeably with out the enter from the class which you mustn't be aggravating when you consider which you probably did no longer pay training. in case you prefer to examine html layout, %. up up a e book on the subject and have been given with the aid of it, and supplement that with loose tutorials on line which comprise from w3schools. Hell, i ought to assist you out on the subject, i comprehend somewhat approximately html. At any fee, it is no longer your precise to truly take a seat in except the particular college has a policiy that announces it is okay. It sort of like stealing loose cable, you do no longer quite take any supplies faraway from the cable organisation, yet your nevertheless taking some thing that your think to pay for.

W beats a grade of F any day because an F will have a detrimental effect on your overall GPA. Of course, too many W's doesn't look too good either but a few should not make a difference.

I had to use W before since I couldn't stand the professor I had. I started with community college, 4-yr and now am in Grad school. It's much better to have W than C or F since it won't affect your GPA.

A "W" grade is not an "F" so that means a "W" is in your favor. People understand that things come up and you have to drop the class.
So if it were me I would take a "w" over and "f" any day

As long as it is a W - passing and not a W - failing. When you apply or interview, you can always explain why you withdrew. A WF will go down as failing.

A "W" is a lot easier to explain than a "C" or "D" or worse.
Go for the "W" if the professor will allow it.
Not an "I"----right? a "W"
