That bad?

<p>Is it really bad to have a dropped course notation on your transcript?</p>

<p>I don't think so. If you have one or two drops in your transcript , just make sure to have a legitimate reason (urgent family issues cough cough) if a future interviewer/employer asks you. Also, its better to drop a course as early as possible since the week you drop also gets recorded.</p>

<p>I have one on my undergrad transcript, and it doesn't seem like it's affected me in the least bit. I still got into some pretty darn good grad schools, and employers seem largely uninterested in it.</p>
