getting a D

I might be getting a D in my PCAL class!!!!!! It is the only class I am worried about at this point. I have taken all of the required math classes, this is just an extra one. Would I still be able to go to SB?

call the admission office and tell them your situation. i'm getting a D in my ap calc class, but i knew that a few months ago, so i called up the admission office, got to talk to my counselor and he told me that as long i only have this ONE D, i wont be rescinded. but i have other stuff to make up for the class; taking 2 math classes this year, and i got a C first semester (i think they expect some grades to drop). but i'll still be holding a 3.5 atleast even with the D.

I sent an e-mail last night, and this is what they sent back:

*I am really worried!!!!!!
tr1p7s- did you talk to an admissions counselor? If so what did they say?
