Question Posted Thursday December 13 2007, 6:09 pm
If I am early decision-ing to a school and I don't know if I got in yet, but say that I do. Then, how much does the midyear report matter? (ex: C's and D's)? And do your final grades at the end of the year make a difference? Do the colleges see that as well?
Additional info, added Thursday December 13 2007, 6:09 pm: Because if I already get into the school.. would the grades still count that much that they'd retract the acceptance?.

Everyone says that senior year is cake...it's probably the hardest year of HS...just keep your grades up. [ superstarblue89's advice column | Ask superstarblue89 A Question ]

If you are used to getting A's and B's...I think it'd be fine to get B's and C's. I would steer clear from D's. And I think if you do fail a class they could retract your decision.
I know I slacked off my last semester of high school. But I made sure to pass and not get any D's.
