common app: no 12th grade year classes needed?

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

some of the schools for s20 require listing all classes taken and grades on the common app.

we’re sort of confused on a few things: like why they don’t ask for the classes being taken senior year? I thought that was important to show . . . but there’s no grades so far so they don’t want to know the classes. Are we getting that right?

and grades: kid’s school gives an A- . . . . but counts this as an A which equals a 4.0. So - on common app - he puts down a 4.0 for an A-??

thanks; first time with this for us both.

They do; it’s under the Current Year section.

He lists an A- as the grade and he lists the GPA that is on his transcript.

If he is applyimg RD or is deferred EA or ED there is usually a requirement to submit first semester grade 12 results when available.
