<p>I am way in over my head in Ap calculus AB. I did terribly on my first test but thanks to hw and quizzes I have an 85 in the class (the lowest possible B). How bad would this B look for top colleges such as the ivies and Stanford?</p>
<p>An 85 is the lowest possible B? A 79.5 is the lowestB one can earn at my school… </p>
<p>Regardless, I’m sure 1 B in a very difficult AP class won’t cost you an acceptance.</p>
<p>At my school our grading scale is
A (93-100)
B (85-92)
C (77-84)
D (70-76)
F under 70</p>
<p>I wouldn’t worry too much about it! AP calculus is considered as one of the more difficult aps. Just make sure to improve later on in the school year 
Hope I helped!</p>
<p>Oh wow that’s weird. (Mine is 89.5-100 for an A, 89.4-79.5 is a B, 79.4-69.5 is a C, 69.4-59.5 is a D)</p>
<p>1Rachel…I would kill for a grading system like that! </p>
<p>For us, it<code>s pretty much like Tennischick</code>s, but our lowest A:94. Lowest B:86, and so on.</p>
<p>Better than my C in Calc BC…</p>
<p>Get a 5 on your AP exam</p>
<p>I actually feel sadness that you guys stress yourself over one B.</p>
<p>Really depends on the rest of your application and GPA.</p>
<p>A B is all right. But this is the beginning of the year and if you find yourself having trouble, you may to try a tutor or Kahn Academy. It’s only going to get more challenging, so commit to it.</p>
