Im just finishing up the semester and it look possible that I may be getting a D in AP physics. I am taking all AP/IB courses and I think I took way too much workload then I could handle. My grades right now are: 2 As 3 Bs 1 C and the possible D.
Is this 1 D going to ruin me?
I am applying to most of the main in-state colleges in florida, will I be most likely rescinded and what can I do in response? I can barely eat or sleep the past week out of fear that I ruined my future someone please give me an answer straight to the point so it can end my suffering of the wait. I have been accepted from 3 universities so far but it doesnt feel as good as it should because of my dilemma.
Well time to study for my AP Calc BC exam while I wait so I dont mess that up too…
Is it AP Physics 1, AP Physics 1&2, or AP Physics C?
Getting a D is possible grounds for rescinding your admissions offer, but only the college can tell you if they will do that for sure.
First, talk to your guidance counselor to find out your options. See if it is possible to move to a non-AP level physics class, but don’t make the switch until you talk to the college and ask if they will permit you going down a level (perhaps in exchange for re-taking physics in college).
Don’t bury your head in the sand over this. Colleges tend to be more forgiving if you “get ahead of the problem”, that is, keeping the communication open with them, investigating options, proposing solutions. Just don’t make any decisions without talking to them first.
