<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>First time poster, but long time reader.</p>
<p>So, anyway, Tulane is my dream school and I was accepted under early action. I was surprised, as my grades last year included both a fail and a D in my math class.</p>
<p>As a result, I am repeating the math class this year. My teacher just informed me today that instead of receiving a C as I have all semester, I will be receiving a D on my fall semester final report card. I have tried everything to get her to change it, but she is refusing.</p>
<p>My other grades consist of all As and **, with no honors classes but 4 AP classes.
Overall, my uwGPA for this semester is a 3.3 and my wGPA is a 3.85.</p>
<p>After learning this lesson, I can guarantee that I will have at least a C in my math class next semester.</p>
<p>My Question: What actions should I take right now? Should I send Tulane a letter? What do you think the likelihood of my admissions being revoked is?</p>
<p>Please let me know! I'm freaking out</p>
<p>As long as you graduate and don’t have more episodes like this, the chances of your admission being revoked are virtually none. You don’t need to do anything, just get your act together and do well. Tulane accepted you already with poor grades in this subject, so they know there is an issue with you and math, apparently.</p>
<p>Not knowing what is causing this issue, it is hard to comment further. But I imagine you need to pass this to graduate high school, and that is of course a requirement to keep your admission.</p>
<p>I appreciate the input, Fallenchemist!</p>
<p>It’s actually considered a 3rd year math class (it follows Algebra 2), and it’s not a requirement to graduate in my school district.</p>
<p>I feel a lot better now. Thanks.
(What would we do without you?..)</p>
<p>FC… do you know of any cases where Tulane revoked admission?</p>
<p>Not personally, but I have heard that there were a few cases based on behavior over the years. I am not aware of academic issues ever being the reason, but it probably has happened in some extreme cases. I mean sometimes someone doesn’t graduate, and you could call that academic, but it usually stemmed from a serious behavioral issue. Overall, revocation of admission is pretty rare.</p>
<p>Tulanedreamer - Tulane does require 3 years of math in high school, so it is important that you get that passing grade. [Tulane</a> Admission: Application Requirements](<a href=“http://admission.tulane.edu/apply/instructions/requirements.php]Tulane”>http://admission.tulane.edu/apply/instructions/requirements.php) Would they revoke your admission if you didn’t have three years of math? I think probably not, but let’s not tempt fate. Get help from the teacher or someone that makes it understandable to you every day if you have to, but pass that course! Get the cheerleaders to cheer that if you have to. Pass that course, pass that course! OK, sorry. I know you don’t need more pressure, but I wanted to make sure you had all the info.</p>
<p>Math is not for everyone. However, to pass the Math class is not so hard to do. Now-a-days there are lots of help for Math. You can google for help in doing your math homework, there is also website to help you with math logic, etc. Get a tutor from your school, ask help from your friend(s), lots of books written about math, etc. You have exert the extra efforts so can pass that class and perhaps you can ask for extra work and credits to boost your grades? Nothing is impossible.</p>
