= If desired score is not achieved.

I’m nervous because my A-B transcript was ruined by two incapable teachers. (I’m not trying to sound bitter, but one of them (English) gave the whole class this grade on the last day of the marking period for our oral presentation, in which the average grade was a 17/30. Then, I’m predicting a C for Pre-Calculus because my teacher is simply terrible. There are no other words around it. She couldn’t teach us, and she used other teacher’s quizzes.)

Honestly, I will not scream ‘MY LIFE IS OVER’ if my chances at JHU are bad. I honestly anticipate that I’ll only be accepted at UMBC or something, and yeah.

But it’s still nice to know!
Thanks!
