Hi everyone! Its Cynthia \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
So about now you should be getting all you midterm assessments back if you haven’t already. I got my Mechanical Behavior of Materials (trust me, its almost as awful as it sounds) midterm back yesterday and I was not too happy with my grade. Midterms are usually a good indicator in whether you should withdraw from a class or not depending on how much you midterm affects you final grade. All that information can be found on the syllabus you got at the begining of the semester. I ended up going to my professors office hours, and she was very understanding. She recomended that I keep going in the class instead of withdrawing because it was apparant to her that I understood the material and the midterm only counts as 15% of my grade.<\/p>\n
MAKE SURE YOU TALK TO YOUR PROFESSOR BEFORE WITHDRAWING FROM A CLASS<\/span><\/strong> The last day to withdraw with a W is November 13. But make sure its your last resort. Although a W<\/strong> doesn’t exactly look good on your transcripts, it does look better than an F<\/span> and it doesn’t effect your GPA!<\/p>\n Thats all for now!<\/p>\n -Cynthia<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi everyone!
