<p>HEY so I added a class today (L&S C140V/History C187 - Discovery Course) because I was dropped from one of my other courses. I didn't go to instruction on the first day. Someone mentioned that I could be dropped because of this..</p>
<p>this may be a silly question to ask, but how should I word the email? I don’t want it to seem like “HEY, I basically didn’t come to your class the first day cause I just added it cause I was dropped from another class” cause then it’ll seem like the class is my last option (I’m under the unit minimum now)</p>
<p>^ haha, I’m in the same situation as you right now. From my experience, Profs are pretty chill with emails so just try to be polite and let them know what happened. You don’t have to tell them that you’ll be under the unit limit, but just say that you had to add the class late and so were unable to attend the first lecture. Then you can ask if there’s anything you should be aware of so that you could catch up before the next class…</p>
