<p>Before this semester I had a 3.72 (weighted) GPA and a 3.56 unweighted GPA. I take all IB classes and I have impressive recommendations and extracurricular activities. Aside from this C (which was in IB Biology, my weaknessand sciences are unimportant to my major, creative writing), I received four A's and two B's. I know I deserve this grade so I'm scared to talk to my teacher about getting it changed. Will schools like Beloit, Ithaca, and Northeastern reject me because of this?</p>
<p>I’m wondering about this too!
I got my first C in physics this semester. Is it wise to send a letter explaining why I got this C and then promising to do better second semester? Or would this be seen as an excuse and draw more attention to the C on my transcript?</p>
<p>Thanks :)</p>
<p>It’s good to know I’m not the only one!</p>
<p>No, they will not reject you for once C. Applications are viewed holistically. Stop worrying. </p>
<p>Besides, will knowing the answer to this question change ANYTHING? No.</p>
