<p>So it's a week before finals and I'm extremely worried about my 1st semester GPA not being up to par. If you're admitted through ED, do they only consider 1st quarter grades and not care about 1st semester grades as much?</p>
<p>I won't slack off either way, it's just nice to have some pressure lifted.</p>
<p>Nope. You're not technically done with school yet. Your college will get progress reports from your school to see how you're doing. They don't want to see your scores take a dip. Keep it like it's always been.</p>
<p>Once if you've been admitted, if you're talking going from, say, straight As to a few A-s, or even getting a B+, you're probably okay. However, if you're close to failing anything, your admission could be called in to question.</p>
<p>If you go from 4.0 to 3.0, you should be worried...</p>
<p>What if it's like a 3.7 dropping to a 3.3-3.4? ^^;</p>
<p>or a 3.5 to a 3 (kidding)</p>
<p>^^ That's fine. Colleges know that most students will slack off a little once they know where they're going to college. They just don't want to see a report card full of C's and D's.</p>
<p>What if I literally had all A's, with only 2 B's, and then send in a report with mostly B's (but no C's or anything)? Yeah, obviously B's are not a bad grade lol but does it look a littleee fishy? (and its not even that I'm slacking too much! My classes are actually harder! =] )</p>
