Please chance! Very nervous about grades!!!

<p>I am wondering if I have not killed my chances at the Ivies with my first semester grades. I guess the courseload got to me, but my grades look like:</p>

<p>GT Physics: B AP Econ: A
AP Bio (2 credits): B GT Finite Math (Half credit): A
AP English 12: B AP Stats: A
AP Psych: A</p>

<p>I have 3.85 (unweighted) GPA, rank 6/422 in a public magnet school.
I was able to improve my SAT to:</p>

<p>M 710 CR 790 W 710, essay 9</p>

<p>Does anyone know how schools will look at first semester grades (Will they become part of GPA)? I applied RD to Cornell and Columbia, and Penn, as well as Notre Dame and UVA.</p>

<p>Am VERY worried chances are gone! Thank you for any advice.</p>

<p>I should mention, my school's counseling office is sending my first semester report card, which shows a C in English 2nd semester, but a B in the Mid-Year (it was a high C).</p>

<p>I don’t think it will make a HUGE difference, especially since your rank is so high, but don’t take my word for it</p>

<p>it rly wont make a difference lol</p>

<p>I concur with JayJay…prob won’t make a big deal since your stats beforehand were strong (good CR score by the way)</p>

<p>I think you’re fine. Don’t sweat it!</p>
