Let's say you get accepted early action (!), and you send in your midyear report a month later. Let's also say you're taking 7 senior year classes this year and your midyear report shows you got A+'s in all of these courses... except two (let's just say these two classes go by the names of AP Calc BC and Physics... and you have below an A- in those classes...)... Would that honestly set ground for rescinding of your application? I hear so many different things but so far have never heard of it actually happening.
After being accepted in the SCEA or RD round, you would have to go from a majority of A+('s) to mostly D's and C's to be possibly rescinded. Going from A+('s) to A-('s) has no effect. Ditto with going from A+('s) to B+('s).
Do you even have to send your mid-year report if you are accepted EA, or just your final transcript? (Certainly if you are deferred you have to send it.)
The mid-year report is part of the applications process, even for accepted SCEA students. Your guidance counselor MUST send the report, if they don't, Yale will call them asking for it.
Sorry to go off topic (I'm experiencing technical problems with starting a new thread)
Does Yale still consider you for SCEA if you write your SAT on 01 December?
I have contacted the admissions office to inform them of my difficult situation which resulted in an inability to write in November. And I am yet to get a reply.
This is very stressful as I fear that if SCEA applications aren't complete then they tossed away, instead of being added to RD.
Yale will announce SCEA acceptances before the December SAT test results are available to colleges on December 20th. So, no Yale will NOT consider you for SCEA with a December SAT.
Okay so the common answer is that one or two B+'s is okay. But how about lower than a B+? I know it's frowned upon, but as long as you manage to keep most of your grades above an A or so, would a C+ or B- really matter that much?
