<p>i just curious how many Ws u guys have... </p>
<p>could u give me any information???? </p>
<p>I am really worry about my 3OF Ws.... </p>
<p>how its gonna affect my transfer admission to ucla and ucb????</p>
<p>calculus1 W and second time got B
calculus2 W gonna make up at this summer
business1 W winter (got A)</p>
<p>i was business/econ major but changed to bio!!!
thanks for ur reading my problems....</p>
<p>ive made myself a promise to never get a W. </p>
<p>Did you say you have 30?!?!?!?! or 3? </p>
<p>My friend has about 4 and failed most of his others. he is not serious about college and his gpa is 1.2</p>
<p>i had 1. retook and had an 89 so a B.. grr, lol</p>
<p>so i think colleges will excuse 1 W, more than that raises serious eyebrows.</p>
<p>Um I have about 12 W's and I got into UCLA for fall of '07. However, none of the W's were for my major (political science).</p>
<p>oh! i made a big mistake... </p>
<p>not 30 </p>
<p>having 2 now and probably gonna get 1 more for this semester..... ㅠ.ㅠ</p>
<p>you can probably have 4~5 w/o getting in trouble</p>
<p>i hav total 6W.... im aiming for Cal ..</p>
<p>it depends on where u want 2 transfer to. usc will see 2-3 as really bad.</p>
<p>Why have any?</p>
<p>Most colleges will look at your W's on a case by case basis. Each W will be judged in the context of your course load, employment, phys/ment. handicap, personal issues, etc.</p>

asdfdsfasdfasdf</p>
<p>i have 4 Ws and i got in ucb and ucla... i dont think they care about Ws at all.</p>
<p>Please use common sense. </p>
<p>If you were an adcom, i'm sure as hell that a W would raise a red flag.</p>
<p>I have one "W" and I just got accepted at Wheaton, UVA, and Cornell. HOWEVER - that "w" was in a x-country sking class. It was most likely NOT going to hurt my academic record as I explained that I had health problems then. They also saw I ski raced for 4 years and I knew how to ski. Not a big deal overall.</p>
<p>However - I have been told by every single one of my profs - DO NOT have "W's". When you apply to grad school, or whatever - that will be an instant red flag. So try and stay away from doing that at all costs. If it hurts you getting into grad school - I am sure it would hurt you getting into a regular university as a transfer. I know I am not opptomisitc - but thats life. Sorry.</p>
<p>I have one W.</p>
<p>I don't think a W should be taken unless you're going to get less than a B-. Other than that, it's probably doing you more harm than good. You can't get A's in everything, some classes are just that difficult. But, by taking a W, you're taking up space in your schedule and wasting your time just to avoid a B? Hardly seems worth it to me. I've only gotten one B (Calc II at NYU) and I'm a soph with a 3.8. I didn't take a W cus I did everything I could NOT to get a B, but it turned out that way anyway. The material isn't hard, the tests are. Some classes are just built that way.</p>
<p>I have 19w;s , i got into UCLA.</p>
<p>i have 3 w's got into uci,ucsb didn't apply to ucla, ucb</p>
