1st marking period grades for ED

<p>are u guys sending them?</p>

<p>and do u guys think it wud look bad if u didnt send em?</p>

<p>oh i want to! mine showed that i could do well in AP classes :) but how to go about sending them?</p>

<p>I don't think you have to. I'd guess you'd fax it to them.</p>

<p>I have heard tales of adcom's calling up GC's and asking for first quarter grades for the really borderline guys....</p>

<p>whoa.</p>

<p>guess it's too late now...someone else posted that all the decisions were already made.</p>

<p>i doubt that.</p>

<p>no, they went into committee today</p>

<p>how do you know that, sara?</p>

<p>yeh i dont think you have to send in grades...if they want to know...theyll call up your school</p>

<p>yeah they called up my school and asked for my 1st mp grades... so that means they're on the fence for me? :X</p>

<p>If they show any sort of improvement in GPA, send them. Or, if you increased your rigor (added honors, APs) but your GPA stayed the same, send them. If you have a narrative report and your teachers said good things, send them.</p>

<p>What if i got a B in AP Spanish (Hate that class)...excessive absences in one class (teacher says so...A nonetheless)...</p>

<p>My other grades are A's and A+s...it doesnt rly improve GPA but i am taking 5 AP classes...</p>

<p>guys ask your GCs its quite possible they've already faxed in your grades without you knowing..</p>

<p>some girl at my school is doing Huntsman ... her GC sent her grades in ... I'll ask my GC tomorrow</p>

<p>actually Penn called for her 1st quarter grades</p>

<p>is it bad if penn doesnt call and ask for your 1st quarter grades? i dont even think my gc would tell me....</p>

<p>I think it's for borderling applicant only , so if they made up their mind , they wont call
I'm guessing..it's bad and good..</p>

<p>My school sends 1st quarter grades no matter what. I'm happy that they did though...</p>

<p>well, sucks for Penn if they are calling tomorrw, the last day for request releasing grades in my school, is tomorrow morning at 6...the system goes into a lock and the grades go in and out until the semester...don't know why...I just remembered this piece of information.</p>

<p>uhh..first marking period? in what sense? like first semester? our semester doesnt end till jan 22ish. we have 6week/12week grades. i had all A's for 6 weeks.. i could send taht in....12weeks just finisehd so haven't gotten those grades yet...but uh..i know my ap english teacher is putting an incomplete on it beacuse (hey guess what) I missed my unit essay for my penn interview, and im making that up tomorrow morning. and well, she's a HAG and was like "well im going to have to make it an incomplete" hrmm i guess i'll go talk to my counselor abt it tomorrow.</p>
