<p>Hey what do you guys think about the importance of senior year grades in the admissions process?</p>
<p>i hope they're not too important, mine are so much worse than junior year grades. colleges only see first term with my second term grades right?</p>
<p>They look at them to make sure that they don't get worse (senioritis). They may rescind if they drop a lot.</p>
<p>ahh im in the same boat...im trying so so hard but my classes are just THAT much harder.</p>
<p>I'm doing badly in my classes, not because of senioritis, but because of all the emotional stuff and stress going on in my life so far, especially stuff related to colleges...</p>
<p>...My calc grade dropped six points... :(</p>
<p>Do you think they would recalculate our GPAs?</p>
<p>Ahhh I'm worried about this. I'm doing well in all my classes except Calculus... which is going to be fairly low. I hope it's ok.</p>
<p>Yeah same here, they know it's an AP and that it's difficult so no worries.</p>
<p>What's considered fairly low? A B? An A-?</p>
<p>AP Calc is so hard...</p>
<p>I always had a 95ish in precalc, and now I have an 80 in AP Calc (which is a B+ because my teacher makes adjustments). PLus my teacher seriously sucks.</p>
<p>I usually don't post in this part of the forum, but I thought I'd chime in since I just wrote a</a> blog entry about this topic today.</p>
<p>I'm addressing the importance of the senior year curriculum in that post. When it comes to grades, it's not unusual to see a slight dip when students step up the challenge level in their curriculum.</p>
<p>I'm with a lot of you guys on this...I'm doing rather well in all my classes except for AP Calc. In precalc i had a 98 and now in ap i have a 86...=( what a drop...</p>
<p>Try to maintain a B+ average. Besides the semester is not over yet, there is room for improvement.</p>
<p>ugh, I really hope they don't matter too much... My mom is now *****ing about how she worries my grades are too low...</p>
<p>first semester is important</p>
