I'm highly interested in chemistry but I have a C in summer chemistry and a D first quarter in AP Chemistry. Im improving though. Will it ruin my chances of getting into an lvy league when applying into the chemistry field? What can l do to compensate for the grade?

I don't think your chances are completely ruined, although it would likely impact your chances of getting in. If you can take honors chem and AP chem and get A's in both of those, that would help. Oh, and good test scores (ex SAT, ACT, AP) would also really help. Hope this helps!
