Grades question about Ivy League

<p>I am number 9/650-675 in my graduating class at a very competitive high school; thus, I'm in the top 1% of my class.</p>

<p>However, my sophomore year, I got a C+ in Algebra 2/Trig Honors (the rest of my math grades: A/A Geometry Honors, C+/B Algebra 2 honors, A/B+ Math Analysis Honors). </p>

<p>I'm applying to Ivy League schools. Will they see my C+ as a serious detriment to my application, or will they take into account my class rank?</p>

<p>Well, what's your GPA? If it's still pretty high, the C shouldn't be THAT bad. I mean, it's not exactly going to HELP you, but if the rest of your application is really strong, it shouldn't be that bad. I mean, they are the ivies, but who knows?</p>

<p>Actually you're in the top 2% :-P</p>

<p>I have a 4.77 weighted. I don't know unweighted.</p>

<p>Well, i think those adcoms like for the application as a whole, but it may put a dent in your app. can you make it up with something really good, like a national award or something?</p>

<p>Well, here's a link to my ... profile? I guess? </p>

<p>It's under a different username, but yeah. </p>
