<p>I've written letters for each Uc I have applied to to report that I have dropped a class.</p>
<p>Do I need to write the reason why I dropped the class? I have, but I'm not sure whether or not to include it. </p>
<p>My class was from 4-6pm, and I dropped it in order to join the badminton team, do you think the schools would see this as a valid enough reason, and not take it against me?</p>
<p>It depends what class you dropped. If you dropped an elective or a class like ceramics or woodshop it wouldn't matter. However, if you dropped an AP or something they'd probably want to know why.</p>
<p>Please don't rely on information you get on this -- or any message board. If you aren't sure about something, contact the campus directly. Below is the text from the Applicant FAQ on the myberkeley web site

<p>It very clearly states that you much contact them if you add or drop any course after submitting your application -- and it doesn't say we don't care about certain courses. It says if you change any course -- and they very specifically state that misinformation can result in cancellation of your application. They may not care that you drop a course but they do care if you don't tell them. </p>
