<p>So, I'm in kind of a bad situation. I had to start in the summer at my school and I'm taking three classes. The problem is that I'm going to end up with a B in Microeconomics, and an A in the other two classes.</p>

<p>I'm trying to apply to an honors program here and the average student admitted via transfer has about a 3.92 GPA, (about 0-2 B's) About 90-100 people apply, 35 or so are offered admissions. I have the option of dropping the class, it'll show up that I dropped it for no credit or anything. And then I could try and take the course again in the fall (although I'd have to rearrange my whole schedule to fit in a new eco class, and pray I get a good prof, since many are full right now. I'd have to join a waitlist)</p>

<p>Would you drop the class and re-take?
Or would you just take the B?</p>

<p>Take the B. What's so bad about a B? It's not like they would only accept straight A students into the honors program. A few B's won't kill you.</p>
