<p>got deferred from a reach school (U Mich). They asked to send mid year grades once my midterms are complete. My mid year gardes are horrible (85 sem1 and 81 sem 2, with about 3 C's for first time in HS). Is it possible to not send my mid year grades since they are bad? Do I have to send them?</p>
<p>It'll almost surely look worse if you don't send them than if you do - they'll probably assume that a) you're not interested, b) you're totally irresponsible, or c) you failed everything. Just send them in and hope for the best. If there were some extenuating circumstances that explain the drop in your grades, though, definitely send along a note explaining that. Good luck!</p>
