Just curious if anyone knows the % of deferrals to RD for Bates? D24 will write her LOCI this week. So far she has 4 acceptances with merit aid at less selective schools but her top choice remains Bates. I’m wondering if her current B in AP Calc. is going to hurt, even though she’s a psych major. Unfortunately the first day of school the teacher had a test which everyone in the class failed. D24 worked hard to bring that grade up but starting in a hole the first day of school didn’t help. Anyway, should she attempt to explain a B when all other classes are As? Or am overthinking this? No exceptional things to report on the LOCI except starting her senior capstone project (a requirement of her hs).
