Rescinded from Stanford?

Hi, I was happy enough to receive a letter of acceptance to Stanford this year, and still, the stress and fear manage to come back into my life somehow.

This second semester senior year, I managed to procrastinate and pull off 1 A, 3 B’s, and 1 C+.

The C+ I am extremely sure is a mistake, due in part to a style of grading, and perhaps to a missing assignment. I’ve already emailed the teacher about the error, but I cannot review or change my grade until the school year starts.

I have already received the dreaded letter which says that they are concerned with my overall downward trend in my grades, including a C.

I was just wondering, whether I should just explain to them that the grade is a mistake, and that I will fix it up when my high school year starts, or if I should just go ahead and apologize for everything.

If anyone else had similar stories, please don’t hesitate to reply, and thanks for reading.
