Am I at risk of getting rescinded?

hi! i鈥檓 a senior and i plan to attend ball state university in the fall. however, this year, i鈥檝e struggled with some of my classes. i tried taking more rigorous classes this year but i bit off more than i can chew. usually, my GPA hovers around a 3.2-3.4 per semester. my overall GPA is a 2.99 (my covid year wasn鈥檛 the greatest but i鈥檒l get into that later). last term it was a 2.5. i managed a 3.0 in quarter 1, but quarter 2 i really struggled and earned a 2.4 for the quarter which brought my semester GPA down to a 2.5 and my total GPA down to a 2.90. i鈥檒l list my grades below:

I plan on dropping AP Psychology to take a math tutor lab. It鈥檚 a miracle I passed the first semester and I started off this quarter off really rough.

What are my chances of getting rescinded by ball state? Every year (except my freshman year because i refused to cheat while learning online and from home) has been good. my sophomore average yearly GPA was a 3.2 and my junior average yearly GPA was a 3.3. i took dual credit classes last year and have credits from ivy tech community college and several credits from vincennes university for criminal justice.

i鈥檓 involved in my school as well. i am the sports director for my high school鈥檚 radio station, which a staff position in the club. i was program director for the radio station last year, which is basically the 鈥渟tudent station manager鈥, but my true passion was sports broadcasting so i switched. i am also involved with the boy鈥檚 volleyball team. i have an after school job as well at my local grocery store as a produce clerk.

my major will be social studies teaching in the fall. i took and passed World Civilization Honors, US History Honors, and AP Microeconomics. the only class i鈥檝e had trouble in social studies classes is psychology, which i do not plan on pursuing my licensure for. i鈥檝e never been good at math, the highest grade i got in a math class was Algebra 2 and i only got a C. every other class i鈥檝e done pretty well in. i have no idea why i鈥檓 doing so bad this year. i have no missing assignments, no disciplinary issues, nothing out of the ordinary. i鈥檝e only failed three classes, two were my freshman year (Algebra I and Spanish II) and precalc algebra last semester.

what are my chances of getting rescinded? is dropping AP Psychology a good idea because of my performance in the class? what can i do to finish the year strong?

thank you!
