What Should I Do?

<p>Quarter 1 ends next week, which means I have one more week to drop a class.
I'm very tempted to drop AP Calc AB. I was doing well in the class (A-) but I got a C- on my last test and now my grade has dropped to a B-. We have one quiz left and even if I get 100%, my quarter grade will still be a B. That means that I would need a high A next quarter (which I doubt I could do) to pull my semester grade (what shows up on my transcript) to an A-. </p>

<p>I'm really torn on whether I should drop the class and take regular Calculus. The only thing is that I'm very worried how it will look for colleges. Although Math is not my strongest subject, I've been on the honors math track since 8th grade and I'm scared that a sudden drop down to the regular track would look very bad.
What should I do?</p>

<p>Info: I'm a junior, A- average, high test scores, looking to apply to top colleges for IR</p>

<p>LOL, a B is NOT a bad grade. You’re silly. Stick with AP Calc to prepare for the AP test and thus receive college credit.
Most people get lower grades in Calc than previous years, colleges understand that it’s a harder subject.
Don’t worry about your grade, as long as it’s a B- or higher you’re good.</p>
