Will colleges care about B's in PE?

Applying to College

<p>Hi College Confidential! I have a quick question.</p>

<p>So here's my situation, I have ALL A's (including many A+'s and 1 A- in AP Language :( ).</p>

<p>HOWEVER, in my freshman year, I received B's in both semesters of PE. This is because the teacher graded on how fast a student could run the mile, and I could not run at A standards (under 7:30) even though I'm quite athletic (4 year varsity tennis player). In my sophomore year, though, I received an A- first semester followed by an A (my teacher made us run MUCH further, but didn't grade us on time but rather on improvement).</p>

<p>So here are my questions:
1. My two B's made my unweighted GPA go down to 3.95; will colleges care?? Will the B's diminish my chances of acceptance? (while I may sound kind of crazy, I just need reassurance. Help a girl out!hahaha)</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Will my A's in PE sophomore year make up for my B's freshman year?</p></li>
<li><p>Overall, should I just stop worrying? Or should I make up the classes and earn A's?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Imagine if #3 were true… and this conversation happened.</p>

<p>sally: Hi GC, I’d like to re-take my Freshman year PE courses.
Guidance Counselor: Why? You did fine.
sally: but I got 2 Bs and I need to have all As.</p>

<p>imagine all the energy your GC will need to expend JUST NOT TO ROLL HIS/HER EYES at you and suppress yelling out: “Grade whore! Get out of my office!”</p>

<p>Just kidding of course. Please relax.</p>

<p>@T26E4‌ That’s exactly what I thought! Hahaha. I don’t want to come across as a grade grubber, because I’m certainly not.</p>

<p>LOL don’t worry. I get the pressure so many of you feel – common sense sometimes gets chase out of the room. Congrats on your achievements to date. Good luck w/your Sr. year. Don’t forget to have fun. That’s supposed to be part of the equation too!</p>

<p>Wow, do not worry at all. First of all, you don’t need all "A"s to get into ANY college. Second, the last grade you should worry about is PE.</p>

<p>No college will even calculate PE into your GPA. You’re fine</p>
