Can I still get into Georgia Tech, UGA, GSU and other top schools with all As, one C (AP Physics), one B (AP CalcAB)
Answered

In a competitve HS, I rank currently 50/605 ppl and have pretty much all As except for a C in AP physics I and a B in ap calc ab. I have good extracirrculalrs relating to my major (business/econ/finance) and I was just stressing if the one C in physics and B will hurt my chances by a lot?

GSU is almost a 100% acceptance rate, so that should be of no concern if what you stated is true. UGA is a questionable one and one I would consider a target or a hard target. Georgia Tech is what I'd say is a reach school. If your extracurricular is "good" meaning it consists of sports, research/internship, several clubs (with leadership), job, passion project than you should be able to get into UGA.

The C and B does hurt your chances as it not only decreases your unweighted and weighted GPA, but the degree is unknown. If you received 5's or even 4's on those AP tests than you should mention them in your application, and it would increase your chances.
