getting rescinded

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Berkeley

<p>so it's senior year and inevitably, grades are somewhat lower. i had 1 B 9th, 2 Bs 10th, and 3 Bs 11th. Now, 4 of these were english and the rest of my app clearly shows that humanities is not my strong point. For 12th, I'm only taking humanities courses, since i maxed out math and science, but I'm also taking 3 math classes at a university (Stanford EPGY) so hopefully that makes up for it. </p>

<p>But my problem now is that i might be getting a lot of B's in those humanities courses (2 of the 5 I'm taking) and even a C in English. </p>

<p>if i get accepted to Cal, what would happen if my grades tip like that. how low can my grades be without getting rescinded?</p>

<p>i'm pretty sure you can only get rescinded (grade-wise) is you fail a course.</p>

3

<p>Ya, they will only rescind(sp?) if you get a D or F in a class.</p>

4

<p>what the people above me said are true.</p>

<p>but also remember that you cant just pull off straight C's. i think there was a requirement for a 3.0 gpa?</p>

<p>average of a 3.0 unweighted GPA for your entire Senior year.</p>

<p>so this is disregards the context right? you could have been a perfect 4.0 student before and suddenly get a 3.0 all of senior year right?</p>

<p>and im hearing that theres a minimum number of C's that you can get...</p>

<p>Stop worrying, you're not even admitted yet.</p>

8

<p>^Hahahahaha</p>

9

<p>you just have to have an equal number of Cs and As for each semester so you end up with above a 3.0. They don't calculate plusses and minuses in your gpa so don't worry about that.</p>

<p>don't worr y.</p>

<p>tastybeef, it's just that Berkeley was basically my safety school (i say this modestly).</p>

<p>You can always apply again next year or attend community college.</p>
