<p>Up till now I have a cum. GPA of 3.93 and I'm in the top 5%.
There are only around three weeks until the quarter ends, and it looks like I'm getting a B+ in AP Chemistry and AP Biology, both of which I got an A in last quarter. I'm also getting an A- in Calc BC. I plan to major in literature and I regret taking these science classes, but I can't drop them until next semester.
Our school's ranking is not weighted, so my rank will definitely be affected. I know it's common at a lot of schools to take a million AP's, but most seniors at my school take 0-3 APs and I'm taking 6, so the drop in rank will probably be pretty major. Does this count as a senior slide?
I know no one can give me a definite answer, but has anyone gotten in in the past with Bs on mid-term reports? I'm not trying to sound paranoid, but I am really stressed as of late,</p>
<p>If most students at your high school are taking 0-3 AP courses and you are taking 6 AP’s – do not worry about your B+ and slip in rank, as your guidance counselor’s SSR Report probably rated the rigor of your academic program as “Most Demanding”, compared to other students at your school. THAT is what matters most to selective colleges, not your GPA or rank. (After all, any student could be ranked #1 by taking every easy course available.) You should relax.</p>
