[quote=Anonymous]I know that a few schools require them for ED/EA but what about sending them in voluntarily? DC is taking a few APs and earned almost all A's. The one B is in AP Stats and they intend to be a business major. The below advice from Sara Harberson gave me pause. DC is only applying to schools with at least a 20% admit rate.

1. If your grades are really strong first quarter of senior year, ask your guidance/college counselor to send them to all of your "early" colleges, whether you applied Early Decision or Early Action.

Colleges with Early Decision and Early Action will be making decisions into early December (or later) before notifying applicants of admissions decisions. So even if your first quarter doesn't end until Thanksgiving, there's still time for the grades to make a difference.

2. "Really strong first quarter grades" translates into getting all A's or almost all A's.

If you get a B or lower in a class that is important to your intended major, don't voluntarily send your grades.
