i’ll try and keep this short. im taking an online class, and heres the circumstances:
-teachers directions/questions for assignments make no sense a lot of times
-teacher says ‘do it this way’ then contradicts herself by correcting you and telling you to do it the opposite way
-I have asked for help and clarification on something EIGHT (8) times and have not gotten an answer
-the assignments are worth 20 points, but apparently its an all or nothing kinda deal and there is no partial credit, even for putting in effort.
-requests for help on assignments go unanswered
-teachers powerpoint notes contradict the text book
-i’ve either failed or come close to failing every assignment and the 1 test we had so far
so, i want to resign the class. I have already been accepted into another school for next fall, and the credits i would get in this class wouldn’t transfer nor would I even need them. so am i better off resigning the class or just hacking my way though it and taking an F?
I’ve dropped two classes. This was at NCCC. I applied to Rochester, Syracuse Cornell and UB. They all accepted me, so R’s don’t look too bad depending on what the courses are.

R’s look really bad if theres a trend in them. like 1 a semester.
transferring won’t really be too much of a problem, but grad school will not like that at all.
I had 3 or 4 R’s in undergrad (the semester I decided I didn’t want to continue engineering and had a bunch of terrible classes).
Even with those, I got into the MBA program with no ‘real world’ work experience and and only a 3.2 overall gpa. I did quite well on the GMATs but still :gotme:
R means you decided that the class wasnt for you. F means you’re a retard.
edit: R’s might be viewed differently if they are classes in your planned graduation major and/or you retake them.
well, the class is a basic HTML programming class, and im transfering schools to be a Criminal Justice major, so i dont really see how that would look bad. If i need some wort of computer/tech credits, I have taken a couple other classes that should fulfill that.
