<p>How "bad" are C's on a transcript as a junior, esp, when you are an IB student, & taking 4 AP's in 11th?</p>

<p>Profile: (all else A's, unless noted)</p>

<p>9th grade:
B, World Hist</p>

<p>10th:
C 1st sem of IB Precalc, then dropped that for Math Studies in 2nd sem
B (1st sem), C (2nd sem), AP Euro</p>

<p>11th:
There's a probable C in AP USH, and C/D (I'm roadkill) in AP Calc AB for the sem. And a probable B in AP Bio.</p>

<p>Will pulling things up 2nd semester help a lot? I am also considering taking Stat, not BC Calc, as a senior. Your thoughts?</p>

<p>Oh yea, the hardest school I'm applying to is Rhodes (psych major) and I'm in definite need of merit- based as well as need-based aid. Thanks.</p>

<p>My apologies if this should have been under "What Are My Chances" category.</p>

<p>Cs as a junior are bad. Period. Whether or not they will severely hurt your chances depends on where you are applying and what the other parts of your app look like.</p>
