Senior First Quarter Drop

Hello everyone,

I’m applied to Columbia ED and my senior first quarter grades are coming out.
So far, my freshman, sophomore, and junior years are all above A-, and shows gradual improvement.
My SAT combined is 2330 with 12 essay.
This year I took the most challenging courses offered in each discipline, and English and History are expected to have B+ or even B (other subjects above A-).
How much will this grade drop impact my chances?
Thanks-

No one here is on the Columbia admission panels so we don’t know. A B or two in two subjects will not rule you out.

I agree with @“Erin’s Dad”
I don’t think it will make a big difference. It would only negatively affect you if you got like Cs.
