So, my first marking period just ended, and I got A’s in AP Bio and AP Chem, and an A+ in AP Calc, but I don’t know about my humanities grades. (Some teachers post grades, others don’t.) In my AP Gov class all we do is talk, so there’s nothing to assess us on, so I’ve heard our teacher just gives everyone an A-. Will this hurt me at HumEc? I’m applying as a human biology, health, and society major, so my grades in relevant classes are fine, but does Cornell look too carefully at classes that don’t have much to do with whatever college you’re applying to? Thanks guys.
