Help! Rescind?

I misreported a grade on my application. Will this cause rescindment? I reported an A when it was supposed to be a B.

Additionallly, I may be transferring high schools. If I take the hardest or equal-to-what-I-have-now classes, will I get rescinded?

Help! Please?!

Let them know it was a mistake as soon as possible.
If they don't buy that excuse, you will be rescinded.

I think it will depend what class it is. If it's a required class..

...in any case, contact them ASAP.

good luck.

This happened to me too (misreporting a grade - maddeningly enough it was a B+) and they said it was fine, so that's encouraging - but definitely tell them about this and the HS switch ASAP. I heard faxing is usually faster in getting a reply than emailing. Good luck (:

why's the shift from an A to B so important?

Don't they just want a 3.0 average?

This is important because it's factored into his UC gpa. it isn't his senior grades we're talking about.

so any thoughts?!?!?! It was a non-required class, as in, not a-g. But it was 11th grade. just an AP math elective.

It would definitely affect your UC GPA which will probably give them consideration to rescind.
