May have a C for a semester grade(but a B for the year)... will it kill my chances?

Applying to College

<p>My dilemma began when we moved back in early March. It was about a week or so before the grading cutoff for the nine-weeks. I was normally a B student in AP English, but we recently took a test that I didn't fair so well on, and it dropped my grade to a 76 or so. Under normal cirsumstances, that week or so would have been ample time to bring my grade back up to a B, but I was withdrawn from school almost immediately afterwords, making the 76 my nine-weeks grade. I can't be positive, but I'm pretty sure that I will have a C for this nine-weeks as well, as adjusting has been quite difficult and my performance has been slightly subpar. My B for the first semester is high enough, though, that I'll have a B for the year (most likely). My other C is in math, but that requires little explanation, as I have always struggled with it. I'm usually a B-student in math as well, but I had many consecutive absences shortly after moving for reasons beyond my control.</p>

<p>So, will one C for the semester and one for the year kill my chances of NYU???</p>

<p>lol luckily my school only shows the grade that you got in the class for the whole year and not semester grades so i don't have to worry about that semester breakdown or otherwise i would have a couple of C+'s on my transcript.... luckily doing the yearly way all of my grades are B's or better</p>

<p>Anything less than a 4.0 is an auto-reject at NYU.</p>
