First semester grades for Ivies!

<p>I'm applying to a few very selective schools regular decision. Throughout high school, I've had an unweighted 4.0, but this semester I'm pretty sure I'm setting myself up for a B+ in AP Physics C. All my other grades are As, and I am taking the most rigorous courseload available at my school. How much will this slip-up affect me?</p>

<p>I don’t think it will affect your chances</p>

<p>You will be fine one B+ isn’t going to kill you, however you should obviously make sure you try to bring it up to an A</p>

<p>Hopefully you’re aware that no one’s chances are good with these particular schools. You may very well be rejected but you’re quite mis-informed if you think a single B+ is a fatal issue.</p>

<p>Where did you ever grasp that only 4.0 students are admitted to those schools?</p>

<p>Regardless, you may be accepted or rejected but that single grade will be negligible.</p>

<p>You need to go outside by a lake/under a tree/some other calm place, play some relaxing music, and take a nap. Seriously, a B+ will matter so little, the admissions people probably won’t even notice. Just take a deep breath, and let it out, you’ll be fine, just don’t let it dip down to a C, because that could be a, still minor, problem.</p>
