<p>burnout is intensified by cc. come back on december 15th.
senioritis hits around december whether you get into college or not.</p>

<p>Haha. Yeah, I really need to get off this board. Well, here I go....</p>

<p>I think I fluctuate between burnout and senioritis. Every other week seems to be hard for me so I either slack off or work so much it hurts.</p>

<p>i slack too much someone give me an inspirational speech so i go do something productive</p>

<p>whether we get in early or not, its over after the first semester. we just have to graduate without blowing it</p>

<p>Getting c's in your classes second semester when you're applying RD will not help. Colleges will frequently expect a 2nd semester midterm progress report on their applicants (sent along with first semester grades), so getting C's will not bolster your chances of getting in.</p>

<p>Yea I'm trying to graduate Cum Laude so I don't think I can ever really slack =/</p>

<p>:-( hopefully i get in ED...im gona like end with 2 bs 1st semester ack!</p>

<p>i have two semesters at my school. i'll know if i'm accepted to a school before i'm even done with the academic year, so how will they be able to use those grades for admission?</p>

<p>It does happen.My school's head prefect got admission to MIT on basis of his first semester exam marks,but later on he was denied admission coz he got an overall D in his final exams</p>

<p>They can revoke the acceptance, or more likely, put you on academic probation once you're there, which doesn't sound like fun =/</p>

<p>thats blowing it :-/ a D average on final exams in highschool..come on. i'd have to be under the influence</p>

<p>"i have two semesters at my school. i'll know if i'm accepted to a school before i'm even done with the academic year, so how will they be able to use those grades for admission?"</p>

<p>because colleges expect status reports on you. if your cc calls them and tells the adcom that you're maintaining and straight A average in the 2nd semester, you might get a better look in the RD process. But if the college calls and discovers that you're doing poorly, you're not helping yourself at all.</p>

<p>Of course, if you get admitted early, then you pretty much can drop a full grade in your average and not have your college scream at you.</p>

how so mzhang? are ed applicants given more slack because they're considered <em>special</em> - is Princeton willing to accept them early, knowing they could be giving up places with might have gone to more qualified RD applicants - but still willing to take that risk?</p>

<p>i think its more because you're already in, as opposed to RD where they are still making the decision in february when they receive the school report.</p>
