<p>Do colleges look at your 12th grade grades or do you just have to keep them up to avoid having to have your admission rescinded. Do they see your midyear grades and take that into account for admissions?</p>
<p>They’ll see whatever’s available (maybe first term for EA/ED, first semester for RD–depends on your school’s schedule). In general second semester is the “senior slump”, where you can afford to slack a little (NOT A LOT!)</p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p>
