I just remembered that I got 1 93 percent in sophomore year in french. This is because I got 88 on the exam. Will Princeton care deeply about this? My average is still greater than 95 percent.
You’re asking if an A (at least on most US grading scales) will somehow be a negative?
That’s a very high grade.
@bodangles my system in Canada is based entirely on percentages so I do not get a GPA. What I am concerned about is this mark is drastically lower than my other marks.
Absolutely not - a 95+ average will be converted to a 4.0 GPA if 93 is your lowest grade.
Yeah, I’m afraid you should begin looking at other schools. Pasadena City College looks appetizing.
You’re ok. Concentrate on finding colleges that fit your needs/wants and which you and your family can afford.
Princeton is one of the best schools in the world. Make sure you apply to some matches and at least one safety also.
