Midyear Report Question

<p>Are we supposed to put a numerical grade? or just A, B, C, D, F?</p>

<p>also, sorry to hijack your thread. it only says semester grades, but my school runs on quarters.what to do what to do?</p>

<p>CNI - I think they want letter grades.</p>

<p>beefs - you could enter your quarter grades, and then make a note of what they indicate on the additional information area.</p>

<p>Also - see Natalie’s thread on the same topic - it appears my advice is correct :wink: - this time, anyway.</p>

<p>Do we have to give + / -?</p>

<p>Also, for deferred applicants, where should we continue to express our interest?</p>

<p>Give them +/- if it fits in the form.
DO NOT LIE- they get your final transcript.</p>

<p>what does a +/- constitute? Say I have a 91, and an A is a 93, does that count as a B or B+?</p>

<p>How do your grades appear in your transcript?</p>

<p>Numbers. 10 chars</p>

<p>Yeah, I only have letters on my transcript. </p>

<p>When it asks for the maximum possible GPA, should I put 5.0 because AP classes are weighted as 5.0s? I guess this is the obvious way to do it, but it just seems weird to me.</p>

<p>^Same. In my school, if you took all AP courses and got A+s in all of them you’d have a 5.3, but that’s not possible… you can’t take all AP courses. Is 5.3 still the max GPA?</p>

<p>You should probably talk to your GC about that. Anyway, back to my original question, what should I put (numerical or letter grades) on my midyear report if my transcript only shows numerical ones?</p>

<p>just dont put anything.it gives you that option.</p>

<p>beefs, are you answering my question or CNI’s? </p>

<p>I think you could put numerical OR letter. I’m putting down what’s on the transcript.</p>

<p>well, to be honest idn why they want my gpa again. my gpa doesnt change until the end of every year; its not updated every quarter/semester/.</p>

<p>what exactly does “term” mean. do I just put fall?</p>

<p>CNI</p>

<p>Yes, enter your grade as it is listed on your transcript.</p>

<p>JohnC</p>

<p>Yes.</p>

<p>Beefs</p>

<p>“well, to be honest idn why they want my gpa again. my gpa doesnt change until the end of every year; its not updated every quarter/semester/.”</p>

<p>Some schools do update GPA at the end of every term. As you can see from this thread, there is a remarkable variety of grading structures in use.</p>

<p>ohiomom, this is really nitpicky but which grade should i put down if i have a grade for first quarter (sept - nov) and a grade for second quarter (nov - jan)?</p>

<p>verbivorous,
doesn’t your report card have your semester average? that’s what i would put down.
say if you got an A first quarter, B second quarter, and then an A on the exam, your semester average would be an A.</p>
