<p>I know that lately there have been a lot of "will I be rescinded threads" lately, but here is my version....</p>
<p>I've maintained my grades in all my classes (all A's)--except AP physics C, in which I think I have a D+ in right now. Technically, its not that I have slacked off--by transcript clearly shows that physics has always been my weak point. (My pre-ap physics class was my first low B in high school, and it just went down from there. Cornell accepted me with on a C in physics senior year). Am I in danger? Does it matter at all that AP physics C is the hardest class offered at my school (not only is it AP, its physics <em>C</em>)?</p>
<p>Problem is, gpa has frozen at my school. So although I have the last six weeks to maybe push my grade up to a C, cornell won't see that in the official transcript that gets sent. I could perhaps send in the last grades on my own to show my improvement.</p>
<p>I just want to know how serious this is.</p>
<p>Also, if it makes any difference, failing physics will not affect my graduation status in any way. I’m in two science courses for senior year (AP physics, AP bio), and I fulfilled by district’s science credit requirements already.</p>
<p>No. But you should work hard to improve your grade. You don’t want to start Cornell off doing poorly at the end of high school.</p>
<p>^^“No” as in I shouldn’t stress about this at all putting me in danger of rescission? I am trying to improve the grade of course, for my own sake. (I’m worried about contacting cornell about it or not; I don’t want them to start scrutinizing me for no reason at this point…)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s what the answer ‘no’ means when the question is ‘Am I in danger’?</p>
<p>Just do whatever you have to do to get a C.</p>
<p>How does cornell notify that you got rescinded? Email?</p>
<p>This whole conversation is pointless. You can probably count on your hands and toes the number of students who have been rescinded in the last decade. Out of 30,000 students. Stop worrying about being rescinded. Just study hard.</p>

Skorton comes to your front door dressed like the grim reaper, demanding to know how you could have possibly pulled a C in AP Calc for the fourth quarter senior year. Then he drives you to McDonald’s and makes you fill out an application.</p>
<p>Other people are freaking out about C’s, so I feel like I should too…</p>

<p>Other people… Bridge… jump… you know the adage.</p>
