Everyone I know personally who’s gotten into Yale has gotten straight A’s, but I know it’s possible with a few B’s if your extracurriculars are stellar.
From what I’ve read in this forum, if you get a B second semester of senior year after you’re accepted to Yale, they’ll e-mail you a little notification about how they’ve noted it but it’s not enough to raise a flag.
If you get like, three B’s, they’ll demand an essay explanation. :/
