Rescinding Application

<p>Hello! I was admitted into the University of Rochester as a Biochemistry major. I am a little worried that my admittance will be rescinded. My first semester grades were decent/good and as of the 2nd semester, they have slipped. Notably for Chem and Physics, where the teacher's grading system is ridiculous. A simple quiz can drop your grade a whopping 11%. </p>

<p>Could anyone give input? This has me really worried!</p>

<p>First Semester Grades:
AP Chem - 88%
AP Calculus - 90%
AP English Lit - 85%
AP Psychology - 93%
Yearbook - 92%
Physics - 98%</p>

<p>Second Semester (current) grades:
AP Chem - 87%
AP Calculus - 88%
AP English Lit - 87%
AP Psychology - 86%
Yearbook - 93%
Physics - 91%</p>

<p>Is the slip big enough to get my offer rescinded? Maybe I am overreacting, but I would love anyone's input. Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>No, nothing will happen. Just don’t get a D or F.</p>

<p>You’re fine. I agree with the “don’t get a D or F” (or get suspended or in trouble with the law) and you’ll be all set.</p>

<p>Aww, how cute, I wish I had grades that good throughout my entire high school career. The rule of thumb is to not drop below the requirement to be admitted, typically 3.0, with no D’s or F’s or anything bad, disciplinary wise.</p>

<p>Thank you all for the advice, it has calmed my nerves. :)</p>
