<p>Okay. So AP chem is a full year course. There are 4 quarters at my school.
I have been getting B's for the past 3 quarters already.
Now I just HAD to bomb the last quarter. I have a D+ and I think it will drop.</p>
<p>So I calculated everything, and with the "F" I might get, my FINAL grade will average to a C or C+.</p>
<p>SO my ultimate question is, will colleges look at the FINAL grade...or the quarter grade?!?!?!?!???
I just REALLY don't want them to take back their admission offer. (btw, it's not a prestigious school).</p>
<p>Oh man, I’m in the same predicament with AP Literature - except mine is a bit more extreme. I got mid-A’s for the past three quarters as well as a 100 on the midterm but now I’m rocking a low F (like, really low F) 4th quarter; it is to my understanding that colleges will receive your final transcript (which is your aggregate high school career transcript) which will only show final grades - unlike midyear reports which show two quarters, the final report will just show how you did in your classes in total. </p>
<p>Also, it is important to note that colleges DON’T want to rescind your offer of admissions - they do it only in extreme cases (multiple Fs, serious suspension, etc) - it is actually in their best interest that they keep your spot in the class because if they lose that spot, it’ll be a pain in the ass to fill it so late in the year when most of their WL kids have probably already fully committed (financially and emotionally) to another school.</p>
<p>Good luck (to the both of us) LOL. 
</p>
<p>Oh man. Senioritis though. Hitting us hard. LOL
