Hi--I'm grateful to have an acceptance to one MD program. I am going to be committing to them.

In the acceptance letter, there is a condition about maintaining my grades at a level similar to that of mine at time of interview.

I am currently taking a challenging class in my senior spring. At worst I may get a C, at best a B and likely a C+/B-.

At interview I had 3.9 with only an A- or two.

Could this bad course grade result in the offer being questioned or rescinded?

I think its only one course that shouldn't be an issue. bumps happen along the road. I think it is there so that schools don't accept students who actually slack at the end of the year. plus i don't think it is frequent and an institution wouldn't want to waste their precious resources on what a student did in their last quarte/semester of school.
 
Doesn't matter as long as you pass

You can probably even fail a couple of things as long as you graduate but I wouldn't push it. Besides if you got into med school you should be able to pass an undergrad class just by sleeping with the textbook under your pillow
