<p>I was accepted to Trinity under the Early Decision contract, and am worried about my semester and final grades.</p>
<p>Projected grades (unweighted):
AP Physics BC: 95
AP English Lit: 80
AP Spanish Lit: 93
AP Calculus AB: 83
AP Studio Art: 90
Honors Government: 96</p>
<p>The 80 in English is freaking me out, as is the 83 in Math..... the Math grade might be even lower.... Are these grades something to worry about??</p>
<p>No - you will be fine.</p>
<p>butbutbut everyone says Duke is known for rescinding acceptances!
… I’m a hispanic female, in case that matters? Up until this point, I’ve had straight As and A+s throughout high school, though.</p>
<p>I would say no. And the fact that you’re Hispanic only helps you. So calm down and enjoy your holidays :D</p>
<p>You guys don’t smell ■■■■■? Lol</p>
<p>I don’t really smell a ■■■■■, because I’ve seen many, many posts like this over the last few years. I’ve never read a report of anybody being rescinded for a couple of Bs, though. Some people have received letters admonishing them, but usually for worse results than this.</p>
<p>hahah you guys think I’m a ■■■■■? I’m 100% serious. The low 80s are freaking me out because those aren’t the grades I was accepted with, you know?
But, thanks for the input!</p>
<p>You won’t be rescinded for a couple of B’s. It’s usually only serious academic policy violations (e.g. plagiarism, suspension) or significant drops in academic performance (i.e. from straight A student to multiple C’s) that raise concerns.</p>
<p>You will only be rescinded with a D or multiple C’s. Your fine with all A’s and B’s. Even a solitary C will not get you rescinded.</p>
<p>There are always so many of these threads around the end of fall semester and the end of spring semester</p>
<p>They are AP courses…you are fine!</p>
<p>c’s warrant a rejection</p>
