I’m a current senior, and I really want to go to UNC Chapel Hill, and I’ve worked so hard over the years, but I think I messed up for my midyear transcript because I’m going to have a B in stats and a B in English (which has long been my strong suit). I’m okay with the B in stats, but the B in English is only there because I forget about a deadline (it’s online) and messed up completely because of my own stupidity. Anyway, I know there’s nothing I can do about it, but it’s causing me so much anxiety because I keep torturing myself replaying all the things I did instead of working and how I am the reason for my own B. I also keep thinking that the admissions process is so competitive this year, so what if this B is the reason I won’t get in–I could potentially have ruined my shots because of how much of an idiotic lazy fool I am. Anyway, this ridiculous teenage angst has caused me to just sit around being inefficient, so I was wondering if anyone had advice to overcome this?
UNC Chapel Hill is also my dream school.
I don’t have much advice other than to say that a school that rejects you on the basis of two B’s isn’t a school you were destined to go to anyway. I know that probably doesn’t help.
Are you in state or out?
@misssuzyq Hey! I am in state. If it would help you get a better picture, my full stats are here http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-north-carolina-chapel-hill/1693918-chance-ea.html#latest
What about you? And thank you–that actually does help! ![]()
I’m no expert, but your EC’s are really strong and your whole student profile is pretty impressive. As an in-state applicant, you have such a good shot. I’d say if you were out-of-state, the admission results would be more unlikely, but I really don’t think you should sweat this too much!
I’m in-state too. I live just north of Raleigh.
