<p>i got deferred and was told to submit my mid year report. Ive gotten averages of 85 and 80 so far in AP english and im probably gonna get a 65 for the final grade for the fall term. Will this hold me back? Will Fordham take into consideration that its an AP? i have 2 other AP classes (Government and Economics) and my average is 100 (weighted) if u dont count my eng grade but like a 95ish if u do. any thoughts?</p>
<p>I dont know if any one thing would keep you from not getting in but I have a hard time believing that failing a class (even if it is an AP) wouldnt hurt your chances.... if you've had averages of 85 and 80 how are you going to end up with a 65?</p>
<p>i had a mishap with some essays and now the teacher is being really uncooperative and wont let me make up work i missed while i was in the hospital. Do u think my chances are gonna be greatly affected for Fordham?</p>
<p>Make it known what happened, without whining or blaming. Just state the facts. Be honest. Get your GC to confirm your version of what happened. Its not good. But it happens, and sometimes circumstances are beyond your control. If your overall record is clean and consistent, it wont harm you, if you provide an explanation. Fordham is a school that requires a lot of papers, and writing skills are prized.</p>
