Withdrawing from TECEPs Gives a "W" Grade

[mariobros1985]

Hi everyone!

I ended up signing up for 4 TECEP exams, but realized that I wouldn't be able to do all of them due to all the remaining classes that I have to do at Metropolia and some other family obligations that I have. I realized that the TECEPs weren't very important unless I wanted to finish another Area of Study (which I was thinking about just in case) and I wanted to prioritize the Metropolia classes so that I could get an evaluation by ACEI and TESU as soon as possible so that I could sign up for classes at TESU by January. I ended up deciding to drop 2 TECEPs and I think it was a mistake because I casually looked at my transcript today and it says that I have 2 "W"s now. I think I should have either taken them and failed them or not have dropped them at all and not have taken the tests.

Has anyone else had this happen before? I find it weird that that would happen when I think I saw on here that there wouldn't be any consequence to dropping it. I also find it weird that TESU would do this, but not also record a failed TECEP on the transcript.

The only good thing, I believe, is that it's not like an F grade that would affect the overall GPA.
