<p>So I got a C in BC calc (B weighted). Am I screwed?
If they compared my grades with other peoples in the class I would be the 2nd highest (out of 8 mind you (everybody else dropped out lmao)) the only individual above me has taken calc before.</p>
<p>The teacher is Harvard math grad, so she doesn't play around. I haven't dropped it cause I'm legit learning a lot a lot about calc. I can do any problem in any math book with ease, however her tests are 15 non-homework hybrid problems in 40min. So it's rough.</p>
<p>Well to be honest exams in Berkeley are like that…so at least you’re being prepared. As long as your overall unweighted GPA is above 3.0 then you’re fine.</p>
<p>I don’t know what others on CC will think about this, but there’s a section on the application where you can explain any “inconsistencies” in your grades/transcript. You can say all of this in a nice, “humble” way…but I dunno how it will come across. Any other CC opinions? Has anyone else done something similar?</p>
<p>But honestly, if it’s just some kind of inconsistency and you do well on the AP test AND the rest of your application looks really good, then I think you should be fine :)</p>
<p>OP - you are only required to submit your grades through the end of junior year. Unless requested to update with first half senior year grades in a supplemental request, something that affects only a small percentage of applicants, it won’t be considered AT ALL in your admission. </p>
<p>Further, if you are offered admission and accept, the only conditions are that each senior year semester have a 3.0 UW average with no D or F grades. Therefore, the C would be totally compliant with those conditions and not a problem at all. It is binary - you meet the conditions of admission and are unconditionally permitted to attend, or you fail the conditions and then make a case for why you should still be allowed in. Once over the bar, it doesn’t matter.</p>
