<p>I got an 82 in Grade 11 Math this year.</p>

<p>I have to options:</p>

<li><p>take the grade and see my weighted GPA go down from grade 9 to 10</p></li>
<li><p>retake the course but have it noted on my transcript I repeated the course.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>What should I do?</p>

<p>Im mainly concerned that my weighted GPA will have fallen should I not retake the class.</p>

<p>Just take the B. Its not the end of the world. Do great in Math next year and Harvard could care less.</p>

<p>You should definitely retake the course. You need 100s in all of your classes to get into Harvard…</p>

<p>That’s really not funny - this kid is stressing out right now, just as we all did during the start of the college process. You’d think that a 5 star general like you would understand too…shame on you.</p>

<p>Don’t listen to Dwight.</p>

<p>if you apply and are rejected from Harvard, it will not be because of a B in math.</p>

<p>Also bear in mind that your weighted GPA means very little at a school like Harvard. Admissions officers look at the letters on your transcript more than numbers like GPA and WGPA.</p>

<p>He isn’t an idiot. He’s probably very intelligent. So there’s no reason why he should ever be thinking that a B will ruin the rest of his life.</p>
