How much do grades matter in senior year? I’m submitting all my applications at the end of November. I have a 3.64 right now. I’ve only gotten 1 C before, that was first quarter of college in remedial writing. Since then, my lowest grade has been a couple of Bs. How bad would it be if I got a C or 2 this year (senior year) in classes like Advanced Molecular Biology or Cell Biology (I’m a genetics major). It would barely drop my grade (I would still have 3.6+). Would it not matter since the rest of my grades are pretty good, or might I get my offer of admission or fellowship rescinded?
