<p>I believe i will be getting a D in french with a 69% and my teacher refuses to round. This is my third year and I have tried so hard to maintain a C all year. I already have enough credits and my GPA is above a 3.0. I am a legal studies major, will UCSC rescind my admission? I'm really scared right now.</p>
<p>I am sorry to hear of your situation and there is reason to be worried. The UC schools revoke hundreds of students each year. However you’ve made several posts about this and posting here isn’t going to help you; what will help you is contacting the adcoms at UCSC to see where you stand instead of waiting until August when they review your final transcript. Hopefully in light of your overall record they’ll be able to tell you it won’t matter. If it does matter then they’ll probably ask to you send in a letter of explanation, and they have considerable leeway in deciding what to do. As it says on the UC website
If you need to write a letter of explanation then you need to accept responsibility instead of just blaming the teacher like you did in this post [url=<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/1158367-help-will-uc-santa-cruz-rescind-me.html]here[/url”>help ! will uc santa cruz rescind me ?! - College Search & Selection - College Confidential Forums]here[/url</a>] . In the adult world people are willing to forgive, but the quid pro quo is accepting responsibility and explaining why it won’t happen again. Some people never get this; at work they’re always trying to shift the blame when things go wrong to someone else. And they wonder why they never seem to get promoted.</p>
<p>In your case, maybe this was the worst teacher in your school and the class wasn’t run properly. But not everyone got a D or F. Some kids managed to figure out how to get thru, and the adcoms are going to wonder why you weren’t one of them. In your letter I suggest using plenty of phrases like “In retrospect …” and “I should have …” This doesn’t mean you don’t mention the class situation, but that becomes the backdrop for you taking responsibility, not the whole story.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you.</p>
<p>thanks for the advice. i talked to my teacher and we’re going to try and work something out. If i have 2 C’s would that cause me to get revoked?</p>
