<p>Okay, I failed an AP Class(Computer Science), I got a 79 for the semester and needed to get an 80. How has someone rebounded from a failure like this, and this is extremely irritating and saddening for me since I have all As in my other classes including a 97 in AP World and a 95 in AP Euro.... </p>
<p>And my chances to any Ivy or other prestigious schools have probably gone down the drain(I’m a sophomore) </p>
<p>I don’t see how a C+ (79) is failing. Is that 79 weighted? In a 100 point system, AP classes might get a 10 point bump. And no, this is one class. You are a strong student everywhere else, and you still have 4 semesters of grades left to improve your academic record.</p>
<p>I’m surprised that you were kicked out of a class for having a 79. </p>
<p>Yeah, but my school is annoying by saying you need at least an 80 to continue, but a teacher recommendation could have saved me, but no dice, man. Annoying as well since they didn’t take account of my other grades, but ehhh. I’ll just try harder </p>
<p>They kicked you out of your class because your grade was 79? That’s crazy… Anyways, don’t worry - you’re world isn’t ending. Just continue to get good grades in the rest of your classes. </p>
<p>What class are you taking next semester in place of AP Computer Science? </p>
<p>And, no, this was with no bump applied. </p>
<p>I’m taking just some random elective </p>
<p>If a C+ in an AP class at your school is considered unacceptable, I shudder to think of how inflated grades must be. </p>
<p>Seriously, though, I wouldn’t worry about it. Just do well in your new elective. Happy holidays! </p>
