<p>I got a likely letter from SEAS here's my resume
ethnicity: Costa Rican
residence: Reno, NV
SAT I:750/650/650
SAT II: math 680 physics 700 chemistry 710
GPA: 3.8 have taken about %80 honors and AP classes
AP's: Calc BC 5, Statistics 5, English 4, Physics C mechanics 4, Spanish 3, Chemistry 2, US History 2.
Class Rank: 1 out of about 380 (uncompetitive public school)
essays: very good
recommendations: not expecting anything bad but nothing special</p>

<p>So i have some holes in my resume so I was wondering if anyone had a similar one.</p>

<p>In addition my class rank dropped from 1 to 6 and I got a C in my Calc 3 class that I took at a community college. I'm freaking out. Any thoughts on what might happen?</p>

<p>well..one C isn't enough to take back the offer but they might send you a warning letter to ask you to improve your grades...they care more about changes in grade than rank, you're fine so long as you only have 1 C and you're getting some As.</p>

<p>it seems like a lot of kids who applied to the fu school got the letter thing- and a lot of us spend much time on this site, too. lol</p>

<p>Yea I got it too, and Im really excited about it. Since I got waitlisted from MIT today, there's even a stronger chance of me going there. congrats to all of you and maybe I'm already talking to my future classmates, which is kinda neat.</p>
