I took 5 APs this first semester and I had some borderline grades… I’m really scared I ended up with a C in AP Calculus BC. I never get grades this poor… with a 4.42 weighted GPA and a 34 ACT with lots of extracurriculars, and applying to the school of human ecology, is getting into Cornell RD impossible?
No. They will consider both your difficult schedule (5 APs is a lot) and the fact that you are a senior. They will also look and see your amazing stats from previous years. Don’t worry. One or two bad grades, especially senior year, will not affect your application.
