<p>I am concerned about my first semester senior grades. </p>
<p>I have 3 C's (all weighted classes/ 2 APs, 1 Honors class). I am not a straight A's student, so this is no shocking news. It's not early senioritis or anything of that nature. It's that these classes are tough for me. I've tried my best to do well on these classes, but they are challenging.</p>
<p>When I send my midyear report, I don't want adcoms to assume that I got bad grades because of senioritis.</p>
<p>FYI, I had 2 C's (both AP classes) in my first semester junior year, but brought both of them up to Bs.</p>
<p>So.. do 3 C's look bad for my midyear report? I applied to schools like WFU, rochester, BU, NYU... If accepted to any school, is there a high chance that my acceptance can get rescinded?</p>
<p>Ahh.. this is so stressful!</p>
<p>two words: upward trend </p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Some people say midyear reports hold the same value as sophomore/junior grades, some say it is just to make sure that you are not slacking off. Really, it depends on the college. However, most top schools do take the midyear report into serious consideration.</p>
<p>As for being rescinded, I have heard that C's are fine but failing classes is a no-no. Again, it depends on the college. The UCs, for example, say that you must maintain a 3.0 average during senior year.</p>
<p>what if you get like one C or one D instead of dropping a class, because he/she wants to try his best to learn the material and get a B or even an A in next semester?</p>
<p>it is better than dropping a class, but still looks really bad for ivy schools or top schools for RD decision</p>
<p>So a D would qualify as failing? </p>
<p>I am just struggling a lot right now. I might get a D. I don't know I'll try my best in my upcoming finals to keep my current C's.</p>
<p>Yes, D is considered failing.</p>
