<p>I want to drop this science class that I absolutely detest. I already have all my credits for science. It's not an AP class, but the easiest science class you can think of. The teacher is horrible and I'm learning again what I've already learned since 7th grade. The workload is heavy although we don't do much in class. I have a high A in the class. If I drop it, however, I'll have free period. As a junior, how is this looked upon admissions officers? Is it worth dropping?</p>
<p>Well, it would be better to take the class than to have a free period, but it seems like you’re really not enjoying this class. If it won’t be shown on your transcript, dropping it wouldn’t be a bad option, but I would honestly only do it if I could replace it with another class.</p>
<p>Don’t take a free period. You can drop it if you can find something else to take. By all your credits for science, do you mean youve taken three classes, preferably bio, chem, and physics? Because even if you have gotten all your science credits for graduation, you might not meet the requirements for colleges. </p>
<p>If it shows on your transcript that you dropped it, don’t drop it. If you do drop it, replace it with something else. As guineagirl6 said, even if you have the science credits required for HS graduation, that does not mean that you have the credits necessary for admission to university; check the websites of potential colleges to see the recommended preparation.</p>
<p>I wouldnt drop it think of it like this, you get a free A on your report card, just breeze through it and get those points. Also word from the wise, never do only the high school requirments(except for the small things, my high school need 1yr of art to grad so no need to do 2) go above it, 2yr math required to grad, no go 4yrs. the thing about high school requirments is that they may not match to college requirments and so sticking by them is useless. A free period sure you get a free hour but you could take a AP course/honors course to change this and get a more challenging class that not only is a better enviorment for college, but also gives a higher gpa and college credit saving you money.</p>
<p>Don’t drop it. It looks really bad to drop a class to colleges. What do you plan on even doing with that free period? Are you going to replace it with another class? </p>
