<p>Hi, I was wondering if when Elon recalculates high school gpa, do they take into consideration freshman year grades?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure freshman year is included (I can’t imagine it wouldn’t be). My understanding is that they take into consideration only core curriculum grades, including foreign language but not including electives such as band, choir, home ec, P.E. etc. If your freshman grades are bad, but you’ve brought them up, include an explanation in your application. They give space for a “personal statement”.</p>
