[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you all saying that one C in one semester of an AP class is catastrophic in terms of college admissions? Guess my kid is heading to CC. [/quote] Depends on the high school and the college. Out of the W schools, UMD is getting quite competitive (less so for other high schools). Lots of kids with mostly As, some Bs, and no Cs on the transcript aren't getting admitted. [/quote] I’m the mom of the kid with the C in the class due to missed makeup but the 5 in the AP. So yes this teacher refusing to allow the makeup a little later is probably going to cost me a ton of money, as it probably takes UMCP off the table, even though kid will probably have over 15 APs with 4s and 5s in them. We also would have probably benefitted from percentages, as kid had a 89 in first Q and a 69 in second Q with the missed test. I didn’t know about the possibility of replacing the grade with a summer class, so may now look into that.[/quote]
