<p>Chance me for ivies and nescac schools however have one devestating blow
Hello I am a rising senior looking to play lacrosse in college at ivy's and nescac. Many schools from NESCACS and IVY are interested with me as lacrosse player. As I am about to send my transcripts, I notice I had one C in my whole high school career during my freshman year at an IB public school in placement biology course. I hated the school so much I convinced my parents to move to prep school in Virginia in ever since I have had all A's and A-s and have taken 4-5 APS and honors classes and have received 4s and 5s on exams. In addition, i have 2200 on SAT and high 700's on subject tests. Lastly, I have started clubs like investment club, and International Rescue Club. Have received national Latin awards and classic awards, and have taken college Latin course and done research with a latin professor.</p>

<p>I was wondering would that one C hurt me with schools like Williams, Amherst, Middlebury, Penn, Dartmouth, and Brown in terms of regular admission or athletic recruiting or would they overlook it and see the anomaly, because since it was freshman year in a situation that I hated ( which I could explain the situation of C). Also, they could see my upward trend, see what I accomplished, and seen what I have become. Thank you so much I look forward to responses.</p>

<p>One C freshman year coupled with the rest of your stats should be fine. Should be. My opinion, which counts for nothing. The real opinion is that of the admissions committee. Did you ask the coaches? They have a pretty good sense of what’s admissible.</p>

<p>You have a solid academic record in my opinion and fwiw I don’t think the C will hurt you at all with admissions, especially if you’re recruitable. That said, the Ivies are probably pretty much done with recruiting and the NESCACs aren’t too far behind. Shouldn’t most of the schools you mentioned have seen your full transcripts by now if they’re going to support you through admissions?</p>
