I assume you took Geometry in 9th, so if you list Algebra 1 for 9th also, admissions should know that you did not double up on Math and it was taken in 8th grade. Your grade should not be included in the GPA calculation. You might want to call admissions just to get clarification since it seems they have changed the reporting of these Middle school courses. I am sure you are not the only confused applicant at this point.
