How bad is a W?

I had to get special permission to enter K201 late, but it has been a huge struggle for me thus far. It’s a class where organization and staying ahead of the work is key, and I have done neither particularly well. I also made the poor decision of waiting to submit a graded project until the last minute and the server crashed, which gave me a zero. I have the lecture and lab practical this week and will see how I do on those.

With the zero and extra-credit I have already earned I currently have an A- in the class. If I had to guess, I’d say I will probably end up with a B if I finish out the term.

So my question is how much would a W hurt me in Business honors consideration? Should I stick it out and get the B, or just take the W and try again next semester?
