<p>Those admitted to Stanford obviously are getting mostly A's, but if that turned to mostly B's, would that be reason to revoke your acceptance?? Or only if you started getting C's?</p>
<p>Just trying to judge the extent of my senioritis. :)
Thanks!</p>
<p>Just get Bs. Don’t get a D. Not sure about Cs. It seems you can afford to drop a bit in every class but not a lot in one class.</p>
<p>I only answered this so I could have the last post on the top five Stanford threads, followed by NJDS with the last post on threads 6-10. Write it down: 10:43 PM (Pacific Time). I don’t condone slacking off in school just because you got into a college. Yeah it’s cool to relax a bit, and not overstudy, but students should still make sure they’re learning new things.</p>
<p>yes of course! haha definitely not planning on slacking off (and definitely not planning on getting c’s.) just because i’ve gotten (practically) all A’s up until now, and it’s possible that i’ll get a couple B’s before the year’s over (my course schedule is crazy) and i didn’t want to be paranoid about getting my acceptance revoked haha.</p>
<p>^yeah that’s a good approach. I think the main thing about 2nd semester is a lot of good students still do the work, but they stop worrying about putting in an extra few hours of studying to make sure they get an A on a test or whatever. Like I would overstudy so much before then. Grades generally stay about the same in my experience. Just goes to show that stressing doesn’t help much. Of course there are exceptions. </p>
<p>Haha no worries NJDS. Someone else ruined it anyways.</p>
<p>I think for me it just means not stressing out about every single test or assignment second semester. First semester, and all my other high school years, I’ve stressed out about each and every test and assignment, but now I guess I don’t have to.</p>
<p>I don’t think Stanford is that OCD about getting all A’s. Some people are accepted in the first place with Bs.
I think you’re completely OK with Bs, probably even Cs. Just don’t get too many Ds and of course don’t FAIL.</p>
<p>They will withdraw your admission if you fail to graduate high school, obviously.</p>
<p>Do you think they care more about actual grades or GPA? For example, I’m taking 3 APS, and if I get one C and the rest of my classes are A’s, I’ll have a weighted 4.1 and an unweighted 3.7. Anyone think just having a C will merit them revoking an acceptance?</p>
<p>yea…don’t get any Ds. forget not getting too many, just don’t get them. i know someone who was on stanford’s version of academic probation for first quarter for getting 1 D</p>
<p>I’m almost certain a lone c will not get your admission rescinded. Bs are definitely safe, even a bunch of them. Try to get Bs. In the end, if you put in some effort and show up to class, you will not get rescinded. if you take all school as a joke for the rest of the year, that is when it could be a problem. I’m sure you’ll be fine.</p>
