<p>My grades have slipped and I'm nervous that my admission will be rescinded. Almost all of my grades have dropped. Not a major drop, but one that is noticeable. So, do i have to send in my final transcript?</p>
<p>I think we all have to send in a final transcript.</p>
<p>yeah my school automatically sends it. they asked me to fill out a form of where i am going to college so that they can send it. im sure MIT will see them.</p>
<p>how much of a drop?</p>
<p>B's are OK; C's aren't.</p>
<p>Yep, you'll get a letter from us soon with more details. (Um, how bad are we talking?)</p>
<p>Will MIT send us the final grades form? Or do we just get our school head to send it on a random piece of paper? :S</p>
<p>from a's to b's</p>
<p>happens to the best of us, right Ben? :P</p>
<p>Just wondering would a admission be rescinded if you go from a 89 to a 83 which is basically a B+ to a B-. I am going to Syracuse, thanks.</p>
<p>I hope not. That's scary!</p>
<p>yeah you should be fine. my host at CPW said his went down to a C and they asked him to explain why. as long as its not from like a 99 to an 82 or something.</p>
<p>perfectdark - i believe your school just sends us a transcript when it's ready - you'll get a packet this month with instructions. If we do send some kind of form, it will be in the same packet.</p>
<p>sleepy, I don't think a's to b's would be enough to have your offer pulled. Just don't slip to C's!</p>
<p>thanks mr. ben</p>
<p>I just wanted to say that i saw you up close a couple times at CPW. Once at annas and once somewhere else. I wanted to say hi but i was starstruck. Hi!</p>
<p>Yeah Ben, you do have a starlike quality... I couldn't believe it was you.</p>
<p>sleepu23 and KirbusPrime, you two are too funny!
I did witness the girls going kind of crazy over Matt and Ben at the Meet the Bloggers. It was quite amusing. I have a daughter that just thought these guys were the best. I think the world of them too. </p>
<p>I think a big part of it is how much these two and Daniel B (Money Man) put their precious time into their blogs to really connect with the students and the parents :) They deserve fan clubs!!!</p>
<p>oops...</p>
<p>is that what is called hijacking a thread?</p>
<p>Yeah, I kept seeing Ben. It was really amazing (I think I told him that too haha). Even funnier though was when Kirbus and I ran into Marilee Jones when she was leaving her office for the Parents' Welcome. While we were walking (hell yeah alliteration) in the Infinite, I noticed someone leaving a room right next to me. So I stepped aside to give s/he more room. I glanced over quickly and noticed the room was 3-108 "Admissions". I thought I recognized the woman. I looked at the door again, looked at her face, and triple-checked my suspicion by looking at her name tag. Sure enough, it was her--in the flesh. Really amazing experience for me, haha.</p>
<p>:) These folks are just humans like the rest of us. But they do all graciously give and accept hugs when offered. Especially after being told what great jobs they are doing. :)</p>
<p>I agree! that is what was most special about them, including Marilee (getting ready for her own college search with her daughter), is just how "normal" and down to earth and approachable they really are.</p>
