<p>Does hopkins look at first quarter grades for ED? I know that we're supposed to send in the mid-year report at the end of two quarters, but what about first quarter becuase i'm totally screwed in one class.</p>
<p>If the admissions counselor feels that first quarter grades could help before making the ED decision, we will call your school to get them. I will often contact counselors to get a student's most recent senior grades before making a decision on an ED file.</p>
<p>wait...so if we have to send our quarter grades will we, the students, be notified?...because personally two of my teachers gave me b+ while i deserved a-s and they said it was their mistake but i didn;t bother to ask them to change it because i didn't know quarter grades were evaluated. I mean if we get notified i will first go talk w/ those teachers =(</p>
<p>or probably i should just go talk w/ my counselors and ask them to notify me if jhu requests a quarter grade report?</p>
<p>The problem with sending in first term grades is that we don't receive our report card by mid december. The teachers won't submit the marks to the school administration/counsellor until that time. </p>
<p>And yes, what if one did poorly in one or two courses (meaning not consistent with the overall four-year performance) in the first term?</p>
<p>If we want first quarter grades we do not contact the student but go directly to the guidance counselor. The student is only required to have the mid-year transcript submitted. You do not need to submit 1st quarter grades officially -- if we want them we will call for them.</p>
