I had a friend who got into UC Berkeley and then got a D from his AP English teacher (who was a bitch, but that's besides the point). It was not as small a deal as you guys are making it out to be. He eventually worked it out with the admissions people who said he could go to Cal but would be on a very tight leash in his first semester there.

I had another friend who received a scholarship to play golf at Arizona State. He got a D in Chinese (of all classes) and they were talking about revoking his scholarship/admission, but eventually he argued that his teacher was wrong and my high school administration backed him up.

The worst case was a friend who received a D in Spanish and was previously accepted to UC Santa Cruz. He had his admissions revoked and now he's studying at a community college in San Francisco while helping to coach our high school football team.

I don't mean to dishearten you at all, but understand that it's not a small deal. For universities, seeing a student slack off is a warning sign for things to come. The best thing to do is to go to your teacher and work something out...they understand that that kind of grade at this point in the year can often ruin a student's future. If that's not at all possible, talk to your guidance counselor and see if Rutgers is any different from the schools I mentioned from above. If you, you should be fine, but if not, then you might have to call the admissions people and explain yourself.
Super serious.

like you said, first semester engineers take all the same stuff (general chem, physics, multivariable calculus) so you can take those anywhere

Er, I don't think most engineers take multi variable calc in their first semester tbh.


first or second semester mainly
whatever, either way taking the classes at a community college would not be that big of a deal
it'd be disruptive and would suck, but it could be worse

Try third semester (unless you are 'ahead')
