<p>In the beginning of my junior year, I was caught with a relatively minor infraction of school rules that questioned my integrity. Aside from academic grades, my school also gives out grades based on the number of demerits one gets ("A" is no demerits), so I ended up getting a B for the semester. No other disciplinary action was taken, ie, suspension.</p>
<p>When considering colleges, I had asked my college counselor about it, and he advised to just let it go since for most admissions officers, a "B" won't raise any red flags. Although I followed his advice, I'm second guessing my choice not to mention the incident in my apps. If the incident comes to light, I fear it will seriously tarnish my chances of acceptance.</p>
