<p>I'm sure most of us here on CC have some classes taken in Junior High that are labeled "advanced" and count for college. E.g., taking biology or alegra in 8th grade.</p>
<p>Now say I took biology and earth science in 7 and 8th grades, and 2 more years of sciences in high school. Do colleges see that as four years of science taken?</p>
<p>I took Earth Sci in 8th grade... and it doesn't show up on my high school transcript so I'm pretty sure it doesn't count...</p>
<p>These classes show up on my transcript. The question is whether colleges consider these as one of the X amount of years required of science.</p>
<p>BUMP. Someone please give a response...</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that they only have math courses in middle school for high school credit. For Science they just use the name because it's the subject that they are teaching. You learned middle school Biology not high school Biology.</p>
<p>if you took say a year of a language in middle school- and continued through high school that would show-
ie 5th year French
if you took algebra in 8th grade ( which is middle track in many schools) that would show because then you would have gone on to
geometry ( 9th gd) advanced algebra ( 10th) stats/precalc ( 11th) calc )12th)
but to answer your question- science and math classes taken in middle school don't necessarily complete your requirements
If the college wants 3 lab classes in high school- then it counts if it was a high school class- otherwise no</p>
<p>No, i earned High School credits because it was an advanced program and took the NYS Regents for credit.
So if it counts as HS credit, colleges count it as a year?</p>
<p>If what you say New Yorker is right. Then yeah its high school credit. I would still take science in high school unless you want to skip senior year or take another important class.</p>
<p>yea im from New York and took Regents Earth Science in 8th grade.</p>
<p>Middle School Spanish also went on my HS transcript. With 8th grade being worth 3/4 and 7th grade being 1/4.</p>
