<p>Hello all,
I recently found out that I will be getting 3 B's on the 3 AP classes I am taking this quarter. Last quarter I received 2 B's in those ap courses. I was just wondering as a mostly all A's student with the exception of 3 B's throughout my freshman-Junior year and a Sat score of 1960, am I completely out of consideration because of a bad midyear report to schools such as Cornell, University of Pennsylvania and Princeton? If you have similar situations, please do tell. All advice is much appreciated</p>
<p>Bump for interest (straddling the line between As and Bs in all my classes and it’s infuriating), but I gotta say…I don’t know much about Cornell or UoP, but a 1960 for Princeton is…fairly…bad. Sorry. Have you taken the Subject Tests?</p>
<p>Oh…sorry to say but I think the 1960 will keep you out of all three…are you a legacy or URM or have some other good hook? I’m sure you have some good matches on your list also, right?</p>
<p>I know that a 1960 is not the best of SAT scores but yeah, I have heard of people getting into ivies with them since after all SAT scores are not the only factor in admissions. I know my chances of getting in are very slim, 5-10% but I was just wondering if it completely kicked me out of any chance to get accepted</p>
<p>Well, it probably doesn’t really matter what we tell you-if you’ve heard of applicants admitted with these stats…you can remain hopeful…chances are certainly less than 5-10% but, again, please have back-ups…good luck!</p>
