Grade Advice

<p>I've been told a P on a HS transcript is 'bad' because some colleges look at it as a D, and therefore they do not give credit. Is this true? </p>

<p>I want to switch a C I received in a class to a P, but many tell I am making a bad decision by doing this.</p>

<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>what's a P?</p>

<p>pass, as in taking a class pass/fail rather than for a grade</p>

<p>bump bump bump</p>

<p>There was a thread on this before and I think the majority said that a C is better than a P</p>

<p>I don't think that's true, because for our school classes like guidance of give out Pass or Fail.</p>

<p>it depends on the class, but i think a c would be better, especially if a passing grade is a d</p>

<p>It depends. What subject is it? (that is really what matters)</p>

<p>well, some classes only give P/F. but when you have a choice, esp for a core class, a P would probably look bad since you won't choose to take it if you had an A or B in the class.</p>

<p>its for pre-ap chemistry</p>

<p>ugh.. help me out guys.... i need to decide by Tuesday whether I should take the C or a P.</p>

<p>I'd go for the C. I think a P would raise more eyebrows.</p>

<p>any other input?</p>

<p>I'd go for the C to because the P is more questionable.</p>

<p>lol, right Majay. Go for the C.</p>

<p>how would a P get factored into your gpa?</p>

<p>A P wouldn't factor in at all in the GPA.... </p>

<p>Has no effect at all... unlike a C that drops it by quite a bit...</p>
