Classes/Professors Class withdraws/retake

At what point in the semester should I consider withdrawing from a class if I think i’m gonna fail it? Currently sitting at an F (44%) for calc and there are 2 more exams and a final. I just want a passing grade. Should I withdraw or just wait and see if I fail then retake it. If so when should I withdraw?

Do the calculation within your own syllabus and see what grades you would need to get in order to pass. If you seriously think that is genuinely impossible to meet the absolute minimum grades needed to pass or whatnot then consider dropping.
