[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't colleges just look at overall GPA? I don't think they have time to weed through every detail from 9th on... I believe every school has a minimum GPA and if you have it you have a chance.[/quote] You believe wrong. And the transcript lays it out by subject: Math: A1: A Geometry: B A2: A pre-Calc: A Calc AB: in progress Etc. It also calculates GPA by year. And most school use a special formula to recalculate. Some front add 9th grade grades at all, some don’t include PE and fine arts, some bump for HN and AP, some do not, some county the number of APs and the number of subjects APs were taken in... almost all look for upward trend, with junior grades (and Semester 1 senior for RD) being the most important) Read Who Gets in and Why by Jeffery Selingo.
