My struggle between Senioritis and Calculus

Applying to College
1

<p>After getting my last rejection from Berkeley, I have decided that I will go to UCSD next year. Since I already know which college I'll be attending, I have sadly caught the infectious Senioritis. Luckily, I can wing all my classes and pass with a C or higher, except for one. Dreaded and feared my many, Calculus is the only class that is holding me back from enjoying a relaxed senior year free from depression. I have prepared for the worst and accepted that I may receive a D this spring semester (I have a D currently). </p>

<p>In the case I can't arouse enough pity in my teacher to give me a C, what must I do to keep my admission from being rescinded by UCSD? I have heard that some people have done nothing yet did not have their admission rescinded. Is this likely?</p>

<p>you could, and I know I'm going out on a limb here, study calculus. It's just crazy enough to work.</p>

<p>The point here isn't to play the game, whether getting to UCSD or drawing on the teacher's pity. I might have more sympathy if you were simply struggling with the material, or had shown you're taking other actions to understand the course. But simply saying "I have senioritis" slacking off, and leaving it at that is not how it works.</p>
