<p>I recently realized that there was a calculation error for my grade in AP Calculus AB. I received a B first semester and sent that grade in to colleges, but now I know that I was supposed to have received an A. Do you think it's worth the trouble to fix this problem and notify all the schools I applied to? They are all Ivy / Private schools.</p>
<p>i dont think its a big deal, because its probably a 1-2 % difference, and thats pretty minor to colleges when they're making this decision.</p>
<p>Even with the tight competition for spots in Ivies?
I don't know, I'm stressing over it because I believe there may be a person who got an A and will take my spot.
Am I over analyzing?</p>
<p>so your school/teacher made a mistake and then you ended up correcting them later? It's a medium-sized "deal" but by this time I don't think there's anything you can do. If by some chance you are waitlisted instead of accepted or rejected, you can write a letter explaining how you love the college, all the accomplishments you've achieved since you turned in your application, and that mistake that was on your mid-year, of course accompanied by your school's official mid-year transcript.</p>
<p>Well i think the main reason for mid years is to show you havent slipped significantly.
and plus with percentage discrepancies, its not a big deal.Also, theyve made most decisions by now... unless you feel borderline, or you did badly in junior year and want to show improvement, it shouldnt matter. remember you dont really want to bug them when they are so stressed. hope this was helpful!</p>
<p>It was helpful, thanks :) There's just too much stress with notifications on their way this month. Gahhhh. But yeah, you helped calm my nerves so I appreciate it, haha.</p>
