If I get a C- will I get rescinded?

<p>Self-explanatory. If I get a C-, not a C will I get rescinded? Because I am in huge danger of that in my AP Chem class....</p>

<p>I don’t know for sure, but probably not. A lot of high schools don’t even give +/-. In addition, at Berkeley a C- counts as a pass in most courses, so I don’t know why it would be any different for prospective students (and to boot, it is an AP class).</p>

<p>For HS
C- = C = C+
B- = B = B+
A- = A = A+</p>

<p>so you should be fine.</p>

4

<p>One C should be fine, but I would advise against getting 2 or 3 Cs. I knew someone who got rescinded because she got 2 Cs in the 2nd semester (even although maintaining a 3.0 GPA UW).</p>

5

<p>i had 3c’s first semester with 2.8 uw gpa. and 2nd semester no c’s. 3.5 uw.</p>

6

<p>Did you still get in 88888?</p>

7

<p>Yeahh and I even got an F first semester in AP calc but they gave me a second chance as long as I get a 3.5 unweighted this semester. But trust me one c isn’t bad as long as your unweighted gpa is 3.0 or higher.</p>

8

<p>Yea… thank goddd im here. =0 scary.</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter how many C’s you get, just make sure your unweighted GPA is at least 3.0 and you are not getting ANY D’s or F’s.</p>

Woah, really? Because on the admissions conditions, it says:

It doesn’t really specify the number of allowed C’s, so I’m assuming that doesn’t play a part. Hopefully. :)</p>

11

<p>is it only for UC approved classes, IE the ones that would have gotten calculutated into your UC GPA for admission? I have six AP classes and I could fall below a B in any of them except AP Phys and Calc so I’m starting to get worried if my filler classes aren’t allowed to boost my UW gpa.</p>

12

<p>Nope! I actually emailed the admissions office about that since I have a C- too, and they said just no D’s or F’s with a 3.0+ unweighted GPA.</p>

13

<p>It’ll be fine. I go to Berkeley and I have friends who’ve straight up failed courses without any repercussions. One of them got an A through F one semester of senior year --as in an A, B, C, D, and F. It’s totally fine.</p>

14

<p>so for the 3.0 uw gpa requirement for second semester, art a-g classes like photography count right?.. cuz right now i have
prolly a C in AP Stats
B in Contemp lit
B in AP Econ
A in Photography</p>
