Hello! I am new here, but I have a very important question to ask.
So, I withdrew from a business calculus class, which is not required for my major. So, if I drop it, it won’t put me below 60 units not mess with my IGETC plan. I sent an explanation to UCLA why I dropped it telling them the reasons that I will write here. Since the instructing has moved online, it became harder for me to keep up in the course as I’m not very good at math in general and worse when there is no in-person teaching. My mental health has also been quite bad with this pandemic, so the stress from that kind of influenced my choice in dropping the class to reduce the stress of failing it if the online method in teaching doesn’t work as planned.
But, I’m afraid that this decision of mine will influence my admission to UCLA and I’m afraid my acceptance might be rescinded. My current GPA is 3.87, and if I drop this class, it will raise to 3.9 as I have A’s in all of my other classes. But I don’t know how a second W (got my first W in early 2018 because the professor didn’t teach and failed miserably on the exam there was no way to recover from) is gonna look and I don’t want to look like I’m not trying hard enough or a quitter.
