<p>Good luck with that.</p>
<p>What’s your reasoning?</p>
<p>Sure, if you’re cool with having a small risk of revoked admission, and a large risk of “academic probation” being slapped on your college transcript.</p>
<p>i have a 79 in my stats class…but for our last thing we were given the choice to do a project or take the last chapter and study it on our OWN and take a test. Naturally I’m like sweet project! But it requires us to go out and collect data i.e. askign people their opinions or observing people doing things and taking down data; so i give my stats teacher a project idea and hes ays no you cant do a project and im like why? and hes ilke You’re gonna just make up data. So im seriously like what the hell? And me and my stats teacher have a crappy relationship. I’m more of a class clown and most teachers ilke me but he never liked me and would be like You’re prolly gonan end up at UCI, wouldnt let me go to the restroom but other people, etc and got *<strong><em>Ed when i got into Michigan since he went there. Anyway, the last chapter is really hard so I was like Okay since you wont let me do the project do you think you can help me wtih the last chapter if I dont get some stuff? And hes ilke NO, this is self study only im not helping you at all. So im gonna get help from friends and try to do the best I can but man my stats teacher is being a </em></strong>. So if i completely flunk the test i might go down to a D… so im naturally just pondering worse case scenario</p>
<p>That’s pretty lame. However, I can’t imagine a stats textbook so bad that you can’t get above an 80 from seriously studying the chapter.</p>
<p>or u can just pay a doctor for diagnosis of you have some wierd disease…like whatever “itis” that they can come up with…just not senioritis… i mean if they do anything on you, just threaten them that you are gonna sue them as non-profit organization (i forgot the number and letter that colleges are classified under) for discrimination against the handicapped…they wont dare do **** to you coz they will lose all government funding if they lose a lawsuit like that</p>
<p>People on here are making it seem like revokes are rampant. Trust me, it’s a rare occurrance.</p>
<p>An admissions officer came in and said that only 8 students got their decisions revoked for the class 0f 2010. If it was only 8 out of the 5,500 or so students who commit to Michigan then chances are, unless you’ve messed up horrendously, you’re not getting revoked.</p>
<p>If he gets a D, then he will probably be on academic probation, which is a pretty big stigma when applying for graduate school.</p>
<p>Why is academic probation such a big stigma? Will it still be one even after four years of doing well (say, a 3.8+ gpa. and yes, I know it is difficult to obtain)?</p>
<p>I would think a mistake from your senior year of high school wouldn’t affect you four years later. That seems like nonsense.</p>
<p>You can get off academic probation, but it will always stay on your college record. When grad schools and potential employers see this, it doesn’t look good.</p>
<p>I don’t see why they would really care if you only have it for, say, one term, and you maintain a high gpa for four years.</p>
<p>I can’t imagine them saying to themselves, “Ah, academic probation for one term because of his senior year in high school. That is very worrying. Even though he has a 3.8.”</p>
<p>I could be wrong, though. I just thought it was ridiculous. People make mistakes. Something like this shouldn’t affect someone four years later.</p>
<p>Most of the time when your grade drops enough for a revoking, or academic probation, it’s your own fault that you didn’t keep up your grades.</p>
