<p>Has anyone else received one of these?</p>
<p>I was accepted ED, and when my counselor sent in my first-quarter senior grades, I had 7 A’s and 1 mid-B. After Brown received my complete first-semester transcript (2 mid-B’s, 1 high-B, 5 A’s), the dean of admissions sent me a letter indicating that they had “seen a decline in grades this marking period.”</p>
<p>I know my grades have dropped a little, but Economics and Calc were pretty difficult for me this past semester, and it’s not like I’m failing anything. Should I be worried?</p>
<p>You don’t need to be worried about being rescinded right now, as long as your grades don’t go down any further. Just remember to keep working through the spring.</p>
<p>Thanks for your reply, bruno.</p>
<p>But I mean, rescinded? I was wondering if I should be worried about getting on some sort of probation list or something. Isn’t my offer being rescinded a little much? I thought this letter was a little harsh to begin with. I’ve read other threads about letters like these from Brown, and the reason I was so shocked about getting one myself was that it seemed like only students with C’s and D’s were getting them.</p>
<p>that’s ridiculous…I can’t believe they did that! I seriously only thought they cared about Cs on transcripts.</p>
<p>Being rescinded would be pretty harsh, but I’ve heard of it happening. I suppose you could be put on academic probation as well. Honestly, I’m surprised you got one of those. One of my classes dropped to a B- in second semester of senior year, and Brown didn’t blink an eye.</p>
<p>you’re scaring me soo much right now -.-</p>
<p>i thought they only cared about Cs too… and calc and econ are classes that seem reasonable to take hits in</p>
<p>Do you think theyll care about one C if everything else is an A?</p>
