Indian Kid, Parents are not from USA, I’ve lived in many places from a small town in Alabama to currently in Atlanta, GA.
IM ALSO OPEN TO RECLASS
Grades- Well, I WAS a straight A student. Rigorous schedule, all honors cuz no APs offered now. Middle School was a great time my grades were simply spectacular with a cumulative 4.69 GPA weighted(4 unweighted.). 9th Grade tho I ended with a B in Math. (4.6 weighted) which is now a 3.85 unweighted. So overall 3.95 UW. I plan to improve in math and do better 2nd semester. The reason is because the class is very rote and we js get a book slapped on our faces where we teach ourselves, so it’s different from a basic math environment. Later during admissions process I want to send my middle school mid semester grade report for 2nd semester to show that I am doing good in math.
SSAT- Good this year, 2301 overall(93rd percentile), with all 91st percentile in quant, reading, and verbal, in order 797, 734, and 770.
Recommendations Speculation- English- 7-9/10(I improved drastically), Debate- 9-10/10, History 8-9/10, Math 6-7/10(Cuz my grade ehh but improvement has been seen.)
Principal Recommendation- Id day 7-8/10, I HAVE NEVER MET HIM
