Chance of Admission being rescinded?

Does anyone happen to know what kind of grades must be maintained the 2nd semester in order for something like that not to happen? The undergraduate admissions office keeps telling me that I need to maintain my prior gpa (3.94 uw, 4.4 w) and that pretty impossible right now (3.2 uw, 4.2 weighted). Does anyone know of any concrete cutoff point? Should i start seriously worrying about pulling up all my grades?

No, you will be fine with a 3.2
As long as you don't get any Ds or Fs or straight Cs, they won't do anything.

Send 'em a letter explaining why-or pull that D up. And I think it'll be more understandable if you're not a science/math/engineering major.

I don't think a D in AP calc will kill you, especially since they'll make you take a math placement exam anyway.

I got an incomplete in one of my AP classes for failing to turn in my final project, but they never did anything about it. Of course I didn't actually need the class to graduate anyway, and I had straight 4.0's the hwole year (including the last quarter if it hadn't been incomplete), but still.
