How bad does a W look on a transcript?

Published

I have a 3.91 GPA and my dream nursing school is UCLA. They require organic chemistry, and I'm taking it right now. The majority of the class, including me, is struggling a lot, and I'm doubtful in my ability to pass with even a C. 

Is it a bad idea to withdraw from the class and take the W? I plan to take it next semester with a better professor.
