<p>I'm a senior, and my GPA at the end of junior year was a 3.96; I only got one B. But this year, I think I'll get only one A, and the rest Bs--and maybe even one C. It's not that I'm trying less hard, but that my classes are harder (even though I had six APs last year and five this year).</p>
<p>How will my (relatively) poor senior grades affect my chances of admission to elite colleges? And is it possible that my admission could be revoked because of my senior grades?</p>
<p>Better apply early, that's all I have to say.</p>
<p>I meant to say 1st semester and not full year. </p>
<p>Also, applying early only makes a difference to one school, so I don't see what you mean. </p>
<p>I might not even get the C 1st semester; so essentially I'm asking if straight Bs is a big deal to most colleges given that I did much better in 11th. Short replies do not help me. </p>
<p>many thanks to anyone who will offer their opinion or experience.</p>
<p>Find some schools with rolling admissions, where your able to apply now. Like me I'm applying to Purdue and Indiana now. And I still have ED. Which means I have at least 3 schools right now, where college won't see my senior year grades, as far as getting in goes.</p>
<p>It's important to keep your grades up senior year or some schools may revoke their acceptances. Many schools do ask for final report cards & quite a few also ask for 1st semester reports. Some even want 1st quarter grades. Your GC may have more info, but tread carefully.</p>
