Do You Think My Acceptance to Wharton Will Be Rescinded?

<p>I know you’re probably sick of people asking this, but I don’t know what to do…</p>

<p>I got into Wharton with a 4.0 weighted GPA and 2040 SAT score. My mid-year grades were (the classes that are averaged):
AP Chem 80
AP Stat 90
AP Govn’t 100
AP English 95</p>

<p>I’m thinking that by the end of this year my grades will look like this:
AP Chem 70 (75 at most, possibly a 65)
AP Stat 80
AP Govn’t 95
AP English 90</p>

<p>The only class I’m really worried about is Chem. What is the equivalent of a D in percent grades? Do you think that 1 D and a C (is 80 a C?) in Statistics will get my acceptance rescinded?</p>

<p>I’m going to call the admissions office tomorrow and see what they have to say, and I’m going to speak to my Chem teacher and see if it is possible for me to get a 75, but incase neither are helpful, I would appreciate any input. I have to send in my deposit tomorrow and I want to make the right decision. I don’t want to risk it and end up having no college to attend :-&lt;/p>

<p>I think you're fine, as long as you don't get straight Cs.</p>

<p>I really don't think they would rescind your offer for getting bad grades. It really isn't in the university's interest to rescind any offers.</p>

<p>How the heck did you get into wharton with those stats??? no offense or anything.</p>

<p>^Stats aren't everything. Sheesh 139 posts, I'd say you've been on this site long enough to know that... Btw just saying no offense doesn't mean that the other person won't be offended, thinking that is just plain dumb.</p>

<p>thank you megaman.
chlor, i doubt that you can start a question with "how the heck" and really mean "no offense" by it... and anyway, thats not really the input i asked for, so why bother posting</p>

<p>No they wont. You don't need to call them.</p>

<p>Having a hook helps</p>

<p>"Hook (if any): Hispanic?"

<p>as does the fact that she's in the top .5% or so of her huge class. I think you'll do well at Wharton</p>

<p>I called them this morning, and the guy basically said that as long as I don't fail all my classes I'm good. Sent my deposit this afternoon.</p>
