<p>I'm a senior in high school with a GPA of a 3.0, which means my grades are pretty decent. This year, my classes are all exceptionally easy except for my AP Statistics class. I want to major in psychology when I get to college and I understood that I needed Statistics to get there so I decided to take the course without hesitation. I feel bad because I had to convince my guidance counselor to let me take it since I had not taken an honors math class before. Now, all of my grades are at least a 90+ and I'm barely passing Stat with a 66, which is very bad. I was considering dropping the class since everything else looked great, but my guidance counselor told me that if I decide to drop the class, I'll have to get a W (Withdrawal) on my transcript for colleges to see. </p>
<p>My Stat teacher isn't good at teaching the subject, and I'm not the only one dropping the class, but I'm sure a W will look better than a low grade because I know I will not be able to raise that grade up. I've taken a college course (sociology) last year if that helps just a little bit.</p>
<p>Also, the AP class is a 9th period class, which means it's the last class of the day, if I drop the class, as a senior, I have the option to leave earlier than the other students and underclassmen. Does leaving early look good on college admissions? I have a job and I could use the extra time to get more hours at work.</p>
