Final drop to get a straight "W" is March 3rd...after that you get a WF which is the same as an F

ok.... so you have almost one month. Stick it out and decide on march 2nd.

there is still plenty of time to improve. go ask your professor and/or TAs for extra help/practice drills/whatever. If your school has a tutoring program, go there. you might even get a hot tutor like how I did when i needed help for my Differential Equations class.

You CAN pull through :goodjob:

what math is it?

get a tutor (our tutoring center will find one for you, it's easy), ask a ta for help (if there is one), see the teacher for extra help.

the class must have just started right?

edit: if the teacher likes you and sees you puttin' in work.. most likely, you'll pass.

fuck dropping. You have alot of time to make it up... Just work hard at it.

I seem to have to go through this shit about every fucking semester... our business school has the same "C" prereq for about every damn class. I suck at math, and I always just scrape by in the math classes with the C prereq.

Look for tutors, friends, etc. Talk with your professor. The school is trying to help you and wants you to pass.

Don't drop it.

Go to the professors office hours and ask him what you can do. They are usually sympathetic to those who make an effort.
