<p>I'm trying to do minimum credit (13) for the fall semester (btw incoming freshman) and thinking about pre-med with major in biology. Since my high school did not have AC courses (out state) I chose Anthro 2AC which people say it's great class. I don't want to hurt my GPA and I already have Bio 1B, which I heard very heavy load, and Math 16A with COMPSI seminar.</p>

<p>Is it a good idea to have my grade as P/NP for Anthro 2AC?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>If it’s only for your AC requirement and you don’t need the class for anything else, then I don’t see why it’s not a bad idea, especially if you’re worried about your GPA. </p>

<p>Why are you worried? What do you think it’ll affect?</p>

<p>eh anthro 2ac is supposed to be pretty easy. I’d letter grade it.</p>

<p>Don’t take it for pass/no pass.</p>

<p>You can test it out at letter grade first. If you think it’s manageable, there’s a deadline that by which you can change it back to P/NP.</p>
