To all those who know Northwestern like ze back of your hand or who go there:

I just recently began my senior year, and my college search is completely finished. I am not int he process of applying (sort of), and I have realized Northwestern is probably close to my top choice. However, I have a D in this AP class that i am in b/c it is a wicked hard class and everybody is failing it (it’s not just me at all), and i got my first midterm.

With this in mind, it’s hard to know what’s going to happen. I might get my first “c” on a report card in h.s., meaning i couldn’t get above a 4.1 GPA. my goal is somewhere around a 4.3 so i can get up to NW’s standards. but, say i actually got a C+ and A"s in all the other honors/ap blah blah i’m in, would that ruin my chances if i am a music major? Should i not even bother? it’s just a little bit of a concern b/c they may think i’m slacking when i am working harder than i’ve ever worked >:O

Thank you !
