18 Pass/Fail credits?
Posted: Mon Oct 07, 2013 9:40 pm
I know these pass/fail threads get old but I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice.
I've already taken 4 courses pass/fail for a total of 15 hours (three required 4 hour foreign language courses and one 3 hour grad course). I'm taking a class right now where I'm almost assuredly going to get a B in and the deadline to change it to pass/fail is this week. My GPA = 3.807 so getting a B will probably drop me down .02-.04 points depending on how I do in my other courses. Since I've already taken 15 hours pass/fail do you think this is one of those "in for a penny, in for a pound" situations or will taking a 5th course P/F hurt me? I know having one or two P/F isn't a big deal but I'm not sure where the threshold lies for the number taken.
