Withdrawing from a class

<p>I'm not doing so well in Chemistry (will most likely receive a C+ or B- at best) and I am considering withdrawing from the class. It's a difficult class designed to make premed's drop out and the subject doesn't interest me. I signed up for the class because it fulfills my science core and chemistry has nothing to do with my major.<br>
Does a W look worse than a C+/B- when on transfer applications? Also, would look like I have a less rigorous course load since I will only have 12 credits for the semester if I withdraw? I am taking five classes including Chemistry, each class being 3 credits.</p>

<p>yes, completing 12 credit hours will look less rigorous than completing 15 credits</p>

<p>in my opinion, withdrawing is far less worse than ruining your gpa...</p>
