Absolutely drop it if you're that low, and get your study habits up if this is your fourth class. Employers will not care. Most probably don't care much about your GPA unless you're flirting with a 4.0 or something noteworthy. It's more about internships and contacts

Seems like you are dropping classes as a scape goat. You need to learn to deal with it and work harder rather than dropping classes because you do poorly. This is also a huge waste of money

15 hours a week is that normal in the US? I'd hardly be able to finish my bachlor in 6 semesters if I would take less than 25 hours per week.

Alternative is shit up the GPA, which is far worse. Better to learn a lesson and cough up the dough

and by 15 hours I am sure he meant 15 credits. That's 5 courses (1 course = 3 credits)

I didn't know that universities show which classes you have dropped. That seems pretty silly in that in punishes people that A. want real mastery of a subject or B. are exploring interests outside their major. If your GPA is high excluding the drops.

No, it punishes people who tried something, found it too hard or demanding, and then gave up.

In my school you get in trouble with the respective college that you are in, if you have more than 3 drops, but if you are going to fail, I wouldn't bother staying in. If you feel that you simply cannot pull that grade up into something acceptable, drop it. Deal with the consequences of dropping the class, but don't destroy your GPA. As little time as employers put into looking at your transcript, it would be a rare opportunity for one to actually noticed that you have 4 drops (those 3 drops on college algebra is another story).
I like money. You like money too? We should hang out.
