<p>i don’t think there is a set “cut-line” but if your grades significantly drop, and i really mean significantly, then yes, you will be rescinded, but if they only fall slightly then you should be fine</p>
<p>I got into Dartmouth ED and I feel the exact same way you do. I heard it matters not if you have C’s but how much your grades drop. For ex. if it drops to from an A- to a C than thats really bad but not like a B- to a C+…</p>
<p>I heard it’s bad if your semester grades are really inconsistent with your previous grades. For example, if you had straight A’s befire and first semester senior year you have all B’s, it will look bad. But if you are a student who usually gets A’s and B’s and you have both A’s and B’s first semester, it’s fine. But if you’ve never gotten say, a C, try not to get one. If you already got a C in one class or something, one more might be okay, but still look bad.</p>
