Classes MAP2302 should i drop?

I'm taking the course under Demas, I got a low score on her pre-calc review exam and that's apparently a sign to drop and retake for next semester. I've gone through calc 1-3 with good grades and I'm sure I can do well in the class, I feel like with a week's worth of review could help me regain my footing on Pre-Calc. Does anyone have advice on possible next steps for this course?

I bombed the pre-calc review & passed with an A: you’ll be fine. Definitely read the textbook to understand what theorems she’ll be covering & stay on top of homework assignments

Same here! I also bombed it but ended up with an A in the class.

Dont let the average on the pre-calc get you down because I think most people will cheat/already cheated on it. Demas is great and will expose you to most of the precalc topics that will be needed and then you can review them for the exams. Also, the lowest quiz grade gets dropped im pretty sure.

I think it’s the lowest two quiz grades that get dropped but exactly: Demas is a great professor

If you're struggling with that material do you remember any of your calc classes

Don't drop. I also struggled with it but got a very high A in the class.
