How low can you let your gpa drop? No more than .2? Exp: 3.9 to 3.7.
Also, what if my overall gpa is about the same but I got 1 C in a class. Example: A,A,A,A,A,A,C instead of B+,B+,A,A,A,B+,A
<p>It depends on the school, but from what I've heard you'd have to bomb pretty badly to have your acceptance revoked.</p>
<p>Yeah, that's what I've heard to. Just don't fail. I'd stay out of the C-range too. And don't drop classes. :)</p>
<p>hmm anyone else?</p>
<p>I'd say that -10% would be a safe drop; some slump is expected, regardless of what they say.</p>
<p>Certainly don't drop more than 20%.</p>
<p>(Note: I completely made up these numbers. This is the vague impression that I've gotten from my research. There is no hard and fast rule.)</p>
<p>what if you drop an elective to get early dismisal? my acceptance was to FSU, not harvard... if that makes a difference ;)</p>
<p>I just checked A is for Admission.</p>
<p>Hernandez says that the maximum reasonable drop in grades would be from 5 A's (pre-acceptance) to 2 A's and 3 B's (post-acceptance). This is -15%.</p>
