<p>will failing calculus rescind my admissions to Texas A&M</p>
<p>potentially. you need to work on it. get a tutor.</p>
<p>calculus is easy to fail. Teaching calculus is an art, and most don’t really know how to get it done right. When I was a freshman at Stanford, I took Calculus for non-science majors. I had not taken Calculus in High School. </p>
<p>This guy was a genius. The concepts behind calculus opened vividly before our eyes. He did not use a published book, but instead his own materials.</p>
<p>So… you might have a crummy teacher. A tutor can help you see if from another angle. If all else fails, take the class again in summer.</p>
<p>When you got accepted to Texas A & M didn’t they have an admissions contract? My son got one from his school. It said that he had to maintain a 3.0 gpa and not fail any classes. Find out from Texas A & M to be absolutely sure what you need to do.</p>
<p>This is exactly why I took Calculus my junior year (and I currently have a 75, the class average is a 65). I’d rather get rejected for it than rescinded, but it does really suck to be penalized for taking the hardest high school match classes you can find.</p>
<p>Yeah, most colleges require that you not fail a course to maintain your acceptance. Last year two of my classmates were rescinded for failing a course at our state university (UGA). If you are genuinely struggling because of the material, not senioritis, you could try expressing your concern with an parent/teacher/adviser so you can get back on the right track. I agree with DunninLA as well, seeking outside help could be benefitial especially when grasping math concepts.</p>
<p>no its not senioritis because I’m doing well in all my other classes and they did not make me sign an admissions contract. As of right know i have a 66 in that class for the year</p>
<p>probably. just study hard and don’t fail. unless your taking a college calculus class? in that case, it doesn’t really matter.
but if its at ur high school…iono you might be screwed</p>
