This doesn't really pertain to any exams, but I'm taking a class my local community college. It's an elective class, that I'm only taking because I need a class in Arts Appreciation, the class is called music appreciation and my adviser had said this would be a good class to take. It's an online class, but most of the class I have to listen to opera, orchestra type music, which I absolutely can't stand. My question is, when you fail a class, which I'm pretty sure I will with this and I don't re take the class will the class count towards my gpa if I have more than the required amount of credits for my degree? In other words, lets say my degree I need 128 credits, and I have 135 or something like that, does a school generally take only 128 towards your degree and gpa? Or when I go to transfer my community college class, will the University I'm attending even take this class since it's a failing class? I haven't finished the course yet, so could I basically get an incomplete or withdrawal if I didn't finish, an I or W I'd think would look a lot better than a F. Basically is there a way to eliminate this class/grade from my gpa that someone can recommend? Thanks
