B+ in AP Calculus How much will it hurt?

<p>I'm applying as an engineering major to some really selective schools, but after finding out I got a B+ in AP Calc this semester (AB, not even BC), I don't see how I can be competitive against other engineering students. My top schools include Cornell, Stanford, Northwestern, and Princeton, so that's what I mean about a B+ hindering my chances. I did decently on the SATs (not great, but 750 on Math II and 750 on the regular SAT), but I doubt that will make up for my poor grade this term. How much will this ruin my chances?</p>

<p>you only hurt yourself by asking this question</p>

<p>If you think that one grade in one class (that is a B+, no less) is going to keep you from being an engineer, then you need to get in a good, sturdy stance, feet shoulder width apart and knees bent, then reach down between your legs and get a firm grasp on your neck, then firmly tug and pull your head out of your butt.</p>

<p>lol got it. I probably just overanalyzed it all</p>

<p>750 on math II isn’t great? Do you have pushy asian parents like some of my friends have luls?</p>

<p>if your that anxious about getting an A, I got some good news for you: calculus BC is relatively easier because you already have the basic calculus concepts down and are just adding on to it.</p>

<p>Man…if you don’t get off this site complaining about nothing…lol</p>

<p>B+ in Ap Calc I doubt will be a decision factor, like an A, a B is a respectable grade to have.</p>

<p>Tell us the truth, are you first, second or third generation asian?</p>

<p>^I’ve been on here for almost a year and I still don’t know how to quote!!!</p>

<p>OMG I would love your scores. </p>

<p>I got a 700 on SAT 1 and started off calculus on the wrong foot so I have a C. Quit your complaining, and everyone else who has stellar stats, can it.</p>

<p>Like this only take out the spaces in the brackets:</p>

<p>[ quote ]type your message[ /quote ]</p>

<p>Or to quote with the name, do (without spaces)</p>

<p>[ quote=xAAAx ]boneh3ad is awesome![ /quote ]</p>
