What Does It Take To Be Dropped After Accepted???

<p>Wow, that story does seem a little extreme</p>

<p>haha after posting that story, i'm the super scared one now. i've been accepted to brown, but ....</p>

<p>my predicted A level grades were all As.
however my A level grades became like this:
History: A
Literature: A
General Paper: A
Economics: D</p>

<p>The only thing that didn't match my predicted grades was economics, but i know it's a pretty huge drop. I know colleges consider a minimum C for a pass. Will they think I failed my economics? It isn't a fail in A level context, there's still E. And then AO pass and then F (these two are real fails)</p>

<p>i seriously don't know what happened to my economics. i studied the hardest for it, probably 5 hours everyday for 2 months before the exam. i'll probably get my economics teacher to write a letter to vouch for me that it wasn't senioritis. because she knows how much time and effort i dedicate to economics. but she can't say anything much, cos i really was a average economics student. </p>

<p>i was sick on the day of the exam too, but i don't have anything to prove it cos i didn't see a doctor since i was going to go for the exam anyway. will it sound more like an excuse than a valid reason?</p>

<p>i'm really, really terrified right now.</p>

<p>plus, if they rescind my acceptance, when will it be? i've been accepted to other places such as Vassar and Boston U. Will they only tell me after May 1 and leave me stranded with no college to attend despite multiple acceptances?</p>

<p>i haven't sent brown my A level grades cos they haven't requested it yet. but i do know it's a matter of time.</p>

<p>help and comments please? thanks :)</p>
