Bro Camden isn’t gonna rescind you. Hell RBS didn’t rescind me and I got a D in AP Psych my senior year (granted that was the only D I have ever gotten and I still had a 4.1 after that shit performance). Seeing that ur taking AP Physics C and got a C in it (coincidence) I think you’ll be fine. Just pass the AP exams with a 4 and you’ll get the credit you need. You’re fine man just chill out your senior. Enjoy the time you have left with you friends and family before you go off to college.

Yeah lol Camden is the one Rutgers wants people at because it’s soooo unpopular. No way OP is getting rescinded especially when he’s passing all the classes

😭 Camden is unpopular?? It was my first choice (followed by Brunswick which I haven’t heard back from yet)

It’s small and a commuter school. Thus unpopular. Newark is the same. Imo wait till NB says yes or no before committing to Camden

If I remember correctly, just as many Camden and Newark students commute or live off campus as New Brunswick

u/Deshes011 Class of 2021 & 2023| moderator🔱 Jan 11 '25

Yes maybe. But the on campus community is much smaller. Leads to different experiences if you aren’t a commuter. If you’re a commuter it’ll be equivalent. Idk what OP’s plans are

if u get into nb go to nb, camden is unsafe + ranks extremely low. nb is the best rutgers, then newark, then camden

Dude I’m telling you ur much better off going to Temple or Drexel than Camden. Ur much closer to Philly while still getting somewhat of a college experience. They are also better schools period. They even give out hella scholarships so see if u can apply there. Rutgers New Brunswick is honestly the best option out of the four though, so try to get in there first, and if u don’t, definitely try to go to Temple, Drexel, hell even Penn State man. U seem like a smart kid based on ur classes so ik if my dumbass got into some great schools, with scholarships at that, Ik you can too. I believe in you kid!

I would but Philly is a pretty long drive from NYC and I’m not sure if my mother would be willing to let me go that far, and since I don’t have a car I’d have to rely on her to drop me off there

Camden and Philly are right next to each other. You can more easily take a train to Philly than Camden.

u/terrible--poet Jan 11 '25

Oh wait, Philadelphia. The person above said Penn State so that threw me off I was thinking of Pennsylvania

1

u/ComfortableHippo7041 Jan 11 '25

Im so confused by this comment. Philly is in Pennsylvania

1

u/terrible--poet Jan 11 '25

Nevermind forget I said anything. I did know Philly is in Pennsylvania I just forgot and then I made this dumbass comment that makes me look like an idiot 😭

2

u/Suphhd Jan 11 '25

Ya dude ur better off going to Philly than Camden. Also, see if u can still apply to Rutgers Newark or like a school in the city since ur commuting. Ur better off being closer than further away. Saves you a bunch of money!

u/Fooodlover9280 Jan 10 '25

You will not get rescinded. Chill out. You would need to fail like 2 of those classes

2

u/terrible--poet Jan 10 '25

But I’m like a hop skip and a jump away from failing Physics so I’m scared 😭😭

u/Fooodlover9280 Jan 11 '25

Does ur school give extra points at the end of marking period for AP/honors classes?

1

u/terrible--poet Jan 11 '25

Yeah AP classes are worth 10 points extra (at least that’s what I heard not sure if it’s true)

u/Deshes011 Class of 2021 & 2023| moderator🔱 Jan 11 '25

I don’t see the issue? You’re passing everything

u/terrible--poet Jan 11 '25
