<p>I've only gotten one C. =/ It was a 79 on Honors Pre-Cal, but I was able to raise my grade to an 84 for the year. But don't stress over it. XD If you don't get it, it won't be because of the C. They aren't thinking, "Omigosh! They got a C! Automatic Rejection!"</p>
<p>The mid-year report is the most important part of your application</p>

<p>The straight answer: sure, it will hurt you, in comparison with other people who have higher grades. Will it keep you out of the school you want to attend? That depends on whether your other achievements and characteristics make you more desirable than the other people vying for those slots. In fact, this is almost always the answer to this kind of question.</p>
