Senior Year Downward Trend

Do first semester senior year grades matter a lot? This is kind of dumb, but after I submitted my REA app the senioritis kicked in a little bit early (not an excuse, I know). This semester my grades are slipping a little bit and right now it looks like I’ll be ending the semester with 1-2 B+'s (in a foreign language class and an AP). I’ve only had one other B in the past four years, so I was wondering if top colleges (ex: ivy league, USC) will weigh my first semester grades heavily? In the meantime, I’m trying my best to pull them back up to A’s. Thank you!

A couple of B+s should not be a problem. Any lower and it might be. I suggest you put your foot back on the gas.

ok, thank you!!
