My best friend's son was told directly by admissions officer at Va Tech that he didn't get in because of a C in AP Calc his junior year. BUT - he did NOT otherwise have a 3.8 unweighted average, which is a pretty fantastic GPA and shows strength across the board. I would say if she brings that grade up she should be fine.

Um, yeah. At this rate, she can't even get into NoVa community college.

Nothing is the kiss of death. She should find a way to explain it. Then pick classes next quarter accordingly.
