Ok so i am having an issue. Im in my senior year and I am taking all AP and Honor courses and im having difficulty in AP calc. I am ED1 lehigh and want to do the CSB program or atleast major in CS. My grade right now is a 69 in the class after 1 test and quiz. What should I do?
Can you pull out a B?
I mean I will try too. As of now I have a 69 average. If i could would dropping from AP CALC AB to CP Calc jeopardize my chances
I think Lehigh looks for kids who challenge themselves. I would work super hard and do the best you can. Stay after school and work with the teacher. Find a study buddy. Do the homework and do extra problems until it gets easier. There are classes in the engineering department that require 3-4 hours of homework each night. Those engineering students are like Marines - they seem to enjoy just how crazy hard and time confusing the classes are. . You can even talk about this challenge in your essay! Best of luck!
If dropping down would allow you to get a strong grade-I’d do that. Failing AP calc BC at the midterm point in senior year would not help your chances any even if your essay was fabulous.
