Hi, I am currently accepted into Duke Early Decision but am nervous about the possibility of rescindment. For Marking Period 1, I ended up with all As. I currently have mostly As in my AP classes, but have a B in AP Computer Science and a B in AP Biology for Marking Period 2. When I send my midyear report, will Duke rescind me?
Thank you so much!

No, you will be fine. Bs will not get you rescinded.
Are you sure? I heard that Duke does and has rescinded people who have gotten lower grades.
Typically I’ve only heard of people being rescinded for multiple Cs Ds and Fs, not a few Bs, with mostly As, you’ll be fine!! Congrats on Duke!
Thank you for the information! With the grades that I have now, will I receive a warning letter from admission? They are lower than what I have gotten in the past.
No. And congrats
Thank you!
Yeah there’s a 0% chance of you getting rescinded lol
The mantra is
No Fs,
No Ds,
No felonies.
For some places you can add:
No wall of Cs
Those are the reasons that admissions get rescinded. Oh, serious academic misconduct as well.
You are doing great, so don’t worry.
