<p>I guess I’ve got a fairly “Asian” report card. No offense, if for some reason you are lame enough to be offended (I’m asian myself). A’s in Calc + Bio, B+'s in History + <em>shudder</em> Religion, B’s in English and Spanish.</p>
<p>I’m just ticked off that I got my FIRST C EVER this quarter. C+ in Religion. I’m atheist and never touched a bible before coming to this school, which I did so only for its slightly above average academic prestige. My teacher can’t teach, and you can’t exactly find tips on studying the bible like you can for math. ****. So mad. My parents are going to beat me with chopsticks tonight.</p>
<p>Freshman year - surprisingly, all A’s (okay, A-'s…), um, I guess the classes were a joke and the finals did something?</p>
<p>Soph: 1 B+ 1st semester, another B this semester, rest probably A’s (many A-'s at the borderline).</p>
<p>Did hw 3 times total outside of school this year, don’t remember ever opening a textbook/studying.</p>
<p>I guess proportional to my effort, the results are pretty good, which I attribute it to the pretty low quality of the classes at my school and doing some quirky/out-of-the-box methods in academics that I’ve never seen anyone else do.</p>
<p>I’ve had all A’s (no A-s or below)… 11 APs so far… Most classes are easy, a few aren’t. A couple of times I had borderline grades but my teachers gave me the higher one</p>
<p>I have all A’s, with the exception of 2 B’s in freshman English due to a crappy teacher (I’ve never had any other B’s in English since, and I scored 690 CR and 730 W on the SAT in May. So there, Mr. T). I also have 2 B’s in honors Chemistry this year since I’m just not a chemistry person. Oh, and a B in honors Pre-Calc - also the only B I’ve ever gotten in math. My teacher slacked off during the fourth quarter of the year and didn’t teach anything, yet he expected us to know everything. That makes 5 B’s in total for grades 9 and 10.</p>
<p>Oh well. Hopefully junior year will be better…</p>
<p>How can some of you juniors/ seniors have taken 9-11 AP classes?!? No fair! my school offers ten! and will have taken all of them by the time graduate, lmao…</p>
<p>Question: Do colleges see your semester/midterm/final exam grades, or just final grades? Anyway…</p>
<p>My school does grades without +/-
93-100 A
85-92 B
idk
idk
<69 F</p>
<p>Freshman Year (all IBMYP, which is pre-IB)</p>
<p>-Algebra II/Trig: A

-French II: A
-English I: A
-Biology I: A
-Earth Science: A
-Art I: A
-Health/PE: A</p>
<p>Sophomore Year (all IBMYP except math, which is IB, and Creative Writing, which is standard)</p>
<p>-Math Methods I (basically precal): A
-Civics/Econ: A
-French III: A
-English II: A
-Chem I: A
-Physics I: A
-Art II: A
-Creative Writing: A</p>
<p>But a lot of these were B’s at the semester and were barely A’s at the end. My philosophy sophomore year was “ehhh I think I’ll take a break and coast this year” until fourth quarter when I flipped out and started trying to save my grades. Haha that was a terrible idea.</p>
<p>Two Bs freshman and sophomore year, one B junior year. Luckily only the freshman Bs were in core classes, so it’s not so bad. I take the most rigorous schedule possible, which means lots of honors classes and the few AP courses offered at my school.</p>
<p>But my school’s official transcripts only show the final grade for the course… unless it’s a senior course and it hasn’t ended yet. Then they just show the current grade.</p>
<p>Freshman:
PE: B; A
Spanish 3/4: B+;A+
Biology: B;A
Honors English: A-;A
Honors Geometry: A(first semester was CP); A-
Honors Geography: B-; B+ (should be A-)</p>
<p>Sophomore:
PE: A (one semester only)
Honors Spanish 5/6: A;A+
Honors Chemistry: B+;A-
Honors English Lit: A-;A-
Honors Algebra II: A;A
AP World History: A-;C (my first C :()</p>
<p>I’m a pretty average student for CC. Freshman year I had all As and A+s except for 1 A- in world history since it’s my worst subject. This year I had mostly A-'s except for an A in math and 2 B+'s in AP Euro and AP Art History. My cumulative gpa is 3.86 or something like that.</p>
Bleh, my bad, I didn’t want to cast the tone of it as something amazing, innovative or brillant, it’s pretty ■■■■■■■■ actually IMO (lol), it’s just the little stuff I do that most people don’t do (outside of places like CC, at least), such as decent methods of gaming the system during classes on test days and hw days, quick-witted excuses, figuring out certain patterns and tricks, etc (nothing that anyone can’t do, but no one usually does).</p>
<p>In other words, a bunch of arbitrary bs that somehow works for me. It’s hard to describe.</p>
<p>Um. My GPA got pretty much owned by APWH freshmen year.
We have this thing we do at our school called ‘cool points’. You get a cool point for each point you have away from straight 100s.</p>
<p>eg:
Freshmen Year:</p>
<p>Eng 2 H : 98 (2 cool points)
Biology H: 99 (1 cool point)
Physical Science H: 99 (1 cool point)
French 2 CP (State forced. >_>): 100
APWH: 89 (■■■, this teacher was so hard)
Pre-Calc H: 100
PE: 100</p>
<p>Cool Points: 15</p>
<p>Sophomore Year (This year):
AP Comp. Sci: 100
Eng 3 H: 97
AP Physics C: 99
Chemistry H: 100
French 3 H: 100
Gov H: 99
Econ H: 98
AP Calc AB: 100</p>
