Rescind?

Accepted ED several months ago:

AP Calculus BC - 65 (D)
AP Euro - 85 (B)
AP Lit - 82 (B)
AP Stats - 85 (B)
AP Comp GoPo - 91 (A)
AP US GoPo - 90 (A)
AP Psychology - 91 (A)

I am confident that I can keep all of my grades where they are, but I am stressing out over Calculus. How should I approach it? I have been receiving tutoring and have a good relationship with the teacher, but I am just nervous if the 65 (D) will be enough to get rescinded. No criminal activities or legal troubles, just that one D in Calculus. Should I try talking to the admissions officer or will that make it worse?

It will most likely be an issue if you can’t bring it up to a C. You still have a whole semester to do that.

Hm. Are these your first semester grades or current grades? I’m assuming you have to send the first semester grades in by a certain deadline, probably soon. I’m thinking if you have to send in that D, it may warrant a note. Curious to see what others say.

Yes these are my first semester grades

No, if OP was accepted ED then he/she will only need to send in the final grades, first semester grades are usually not required for EDs. You have another semester to pull up your D.

I agree with @oldfort . You are taking a very ambitious schedule this year and that should help you, but a D could be a problem.
