A day late and a dollar short?

Okay, I feel somewhat discouraged seeing all the acceptance news etc. concerning FSU.

Mainly because I have a few issues I feel will result in a rejection…

I only have a 24 ACT score and a 1630 SAT score, making me skeptical in the first place. However, this year I was switched into Pre Calc about two months into school because of a scheduling error on the school’s behalf. As a result, I received a D on my transcript for the class (It makes me laugh because I’ve never come close to a D in school… ridiculous). Should I call FSU and tell them I’m going to re-take PreCalc over summer, and that the D really doesn’t represent my work ethic and or academic record, because it doesn’t. Other than that, I’m a 4.3 GPA student, with four years of excellent varsity sports, a good (IMO) essay and credentials. But the combination of low test scores and this class have me very, very worried.

I appreciate any help, thank you!
