<p>Hey!
So..I'm having a slight crisis in my life...I got a 93 in physics B for the second quarter after getting a 98 in the first quarter. Not to make excuses, but I'm making excuses. I went to China for two weeks and missed a whole bunch of school and just didn't do as well as I had hoped. I asked for extra credit but my teacher does not think a 93 is that bad of a grade, which it isn't...but its COLUMBIA. I haven't gotten a 93 since like freshman year...do you think this one grade will jeopardize my chances at getting into Columbia? I have a 2250 SAT, 34 ACT and a 99ish weighted GPA. I was already deferred and really want to get in. </p>
<p>Opinions? Am I being absurd about this 93 second-quarter grade? Should I fight with my teacher to raise it? Will it get me rejected from Columbia?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
