Resign on Transcript.

<p>Is getting a Resign(R) on your Transcript really that bad. I mean I plan to go to grad school as well as become an engineer. all the ad visor tell me different things, I have till 11PM what do you guys say.</p>

<p>Is a Resign the same thing as a withdrawal? Because I have a "W" on my transcript, and everyone assured me that if you don't make it a habit and only have 1 or 2, graduate schools really don't mind.</p>

<p>I think its the same.</p>

<p>as granted_business said, 1-2 is fine. AFter that you'll have to go through the hassle of explaining why you had to resign so many times.</p>

<p>Yeah, no one cares about 1 W/R.</p>

<p>Im worried, the TA for the class said most grad school automaticly say no if ya have a W/R</p>

<p>LOL, well there are so many kids w/ withdrawals on their transcript so I couldn't see that really being realistic.</p>

<p>1 or 2 is not going to be the end of the world. You can explain 1 or 2, you know? You can't explain 1 or 2 every semester...1 or 2 in your 4 year undergrad career is totally explainable. What about the people that get sick mid-semester and are forced to withdrawal...are they perpetually going to be doomed for something that was out of their control? I don't think so. Either should you.</p>

<p>couldnt those people get a Incomplete(I)</p>

<p>Someone may just realize that you might have had stress, a bad professor, etc. Just make sure you only have one or two, as others have said.</p>

<p>Engineer77--back at my high school people would get an "I" in gym if they got hurt and were out for more than a few weeks. I would think it would apply to college as well unless they eventually make up the work. And for the record, an "I" at my high school wasn't calculated in the grade if it was gym and for a medical reason--but if it was for someone who wasn't taking tests or something in a class like, say, English, the "I" if I recall was figured in as a C.</p>
