Hi guys,
I need your advice/opinion. I submitted my application a few weeks ago. At the time I had most of my major prep (Computer Science) completed, except for Calc 3 that I am taking now and Linear algebra that I will take in spring. And then all hell broke loose, and I somehow got D- on one test and D on the other. Now all I have left is a final, and if I manage to score 75-80% on it, there’s still a chance I might get a B.
Do not get me wrong - I am not struggling to understand the material. I am mostly failing due to unpredictability of my instructor, who lectures on one thing and tests on the other - probably good 70% of the class are in the same boat…
Right now my GPA is 3.808 (major GPA 3.77), I completed Calc 1 with a B and Calc 2 with A. Worst case scenario, I get a C in Calc 3. How bad would that look on my application? Am I doomed? I do not have any other Cs. Should I just ask for a D and retake it?
