I am wondering how much my 7th grade math grades would affect my application. I did really bad in 7th grade math(c’s and b’s and probably c+ or B- average) I was going through a rough time… anyways would this affect my application a lot?
Me too, I was new to a extremely hard school district and I was taking a hard class.
Do you think it will affect us a lot?
TMAS?
If you’re talking about Texas Academy…they are a school of Maths and sciences so a poor math grade will probably be detrimental.
lol
TAMS does not care about middle school grades, esp. if you were able to improve later on to get all/mostly A’s.
You could always email your concerns to admissions and see what they have to say.
I think it’s important to remember that even though grades are a part of the application, it’s not the only thing that TAMS looks at. They look at applications holistically, meaning they factor in everything, including SAT scores, extracurriculars, grades, etc.
I will say that it’s great to show improvement, and maybe there’s a section of the application where you can explain your bad grades from 7th grade?
