Just got my 1st Quarter Grades: C in BC Calc

<p>omg. ugh…am i screwed…</p>

<p>I’ve heard colleges can be lenient on AP Calc BC grades the first half of the year… apparently it’s happened pretty often.</p>

<p>Did you take AB last year?</p>

<p>It’s not good but I wouldn’t say it will haunt your applications…</p>

<p>It depends on a few things. Is it BC post-AB? A few schools BC courses go straight into Multi, with AB as a pre-requisite. BC is tough; since it’s HS, it may not be too late to drop to AB. If you have taken AB, no reason to get a C, most of the material overlaps.</p>

<p>{Personally, I took AB and BC concurrently. Altho the material overlapped, it emphasized a lot of calculus concepts, and made BC much more bearable.}</p>
