HELP!! Dropping a course at this time of year
I want to drop a course at this point of year but I was wondering what the penalties were that came with this decision. Will I be able to retake the course during the summer? Do I have to pay again for the summer course? Please let me know!!

You fail the course automatically if you drop at this point and you get no money back.
Just ride it out, who know you might just pass with a really low mark, but you pass.
If you fail, yeah you'd have to take it again if its a required course.
Better to pass with really crap mark than to fail.

Yeah what he said. You will at least have some chance at passing, instead of none at all.
