<p>Sooooooooo...</p>
<p>I got accepted into UW-Madison, hopefully getting my housing stuff soon, all that stuff (season tickets, perchance?)</p>
<p>Anyways, I'm taking AP Calc this year, what would happen (entirely hypothetically) if I pulled an "F" second semester?</p>
<p>All my other grades are A's and B's. Would they boot me? If I wanted to switch majors, would I get shot down because of it?</p>
<p>There's like a 20% chance it'll happen. </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Failing a class would be a big problem. Just pass it.</p>
<p>Oscar! Oscar! What should we do with you?! :)</p>
<p>If you end up having insufficient "math requirement" (see <a href="http://www.admissions.wisc.edu/freshman/requirements.php#coursePrep%5B/url%5D">http://www.admissions.wisc.edu/freshman/requirements.php#coursePrep</a> ) after failing your AP calc, I afraid you are giving the adcom no choice. </p>
<p>But, don't worry. As you said, there is 80% this won't happen. ;)</p>
<p>yeah.. i'd just bust your butt and pass... obviously if you're in an A.P. calc class you are completely capable of at least getting a D if not a C for the quarter</p>
