How private schools view C's

<p>If I have 2 C+'s and the rest As all honors and AMAZING ECS( nationally ranked multiple times) do I have a shot at Lawrenceville? Does anyone get in lville with a B? What do these schools look fir</p>

<p>Do you play hockey?</p>

<p>Never say never, but if you were my kid, I’d be tempering your expectations with regards to getting a fat envelope from L-Ville on March 10th. Keep in mind that there are applicants (with whom you are competing for a slot) who have AMAZING ECs AND all As. So why should a school pick you instead of the all As kid?</p>

<p>I think you still have a chance, just make sure you shine in all of the other aspects of your application! And try to explain your grades in your interview if you can. Have you gotten all As in previous years? If Cs are consistent in your transcript then that would be something to worry about.</p>

<p>This is the first year I have received a C. In the past I have received all A’s. My family member was ill this year so it threw me off track @NChopeful‌ but thank you!!!</p>

<p>Oh that’s good. Since you have a really good reason for getting a C and this is the first time it’s happened, don’t worry about it too much!</p>
