If you are at a J.C. and are looking to transfer into a University or professional school, than do not drop the course. Just get your C and pass.
The main thing professional schools look while checking academic records is academic maturity. They do not simply look at your GPA. They are looking to see if you can finish everything that you start (course work), and for gaps in your record. Gaps would be dropped classes, or semesters where you only took a few courses instead of a full load. A low grade to them does not constitute a failure on your part, but a drop will. They will most likely take into account that summer school courses are tougher than regular courses, and the low grade can be explained.
