Do offers actually get rescinded? Should I be worried?

Back in the fall, I accepted a B4 consulting offer for post-graduation. This semester has been rough (I'm in 4 very difficult major classes), and I had a death of a close family member during my midterm week. I am in one additional class that is a business degree requirement but it isn't a major core course, but I think I'm going to get a D in it. I will have A- grades in all my other classes most likely. I'm kind of panicked about having my offer taken away. The contract has some vague language about "satisfactory academic completion", and during a discussion with a recruiter she said that the firm likes to see candidates get Bs but she acknowledged that the firm knows that seniors typically have hard schedules. However, no firm grade cutoffs were communicated. My GPA will be around a 3.55 after the D. This job was difficult to get, and I'm just worried about losing it.

*Also wanted to add that the D is passing at my school and won't hinder my graduation.

Management Consulting 7 Stories Review

“Daniel was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful in preparing my “Tell Me About Yourself” answer and seven interview stories. He went through my answers in great detail, providing constructive feedback and explaining everything very clearly. He always made sure I understood his suggestions before moving on. What I appreciated most was how he offered fresh perspectives and helped me better understand what interviewers are actually looking for. I gained so much from the session and really appreciated his guidance!”

Management Consulting Mock Interview

“Ashley’s industry expertise and depth of knowledge in product strategy are immediately clear. In every session, she breaks down complex management frameworks into easily digestible insights. Her communication style is direct, clear, and empathetic. Rather than giving vague or generic career advice, she provides highly actionable takeaways—including specific templates for stakeholder communications, prioritization frameworks, and real-world examples from her own leadership background that I was able to implement directly into my team's workflow the very next day. Furthermore, her kind, patient, and approachable demeanor made it extremely comfortable to discuss tough workplace scenarios and honest skill gaps without fear of judgment.”
