<p>Which grades should I send to MIT? I'm an international and I am looking for american colleges. We have High School based on 5 years, I am doing the third year of my High School, but which grades MIT will want to see? I know that I should send it a Mid-year Report form, but an international student that I met in this forum have said to me : " You must send all your grades of your 3°,4°,5° years, is it true? I am afraid.</p>
<p>Yes this is true. When you apply to a college/university in the US, you have to send what we call a high school transcript. The HS transcript shows all your grades during high school. MIT will see all your grades since you started high school. Not only MIT but all colleges that you apply in the US. The mid-year report, are you grades form the first semester/trimester of your last year of high school. They ask for that because here in the US, we send applications to colleges in the beginning of the last year of high school before you complete your first semester/trimester. So, in order to see if your grades are more or less the same compared to previous years of your high school life, the colleges, not only MIT, ask the applicants to send their mid-year report. I hope it helps</p>
<p>Maybe not all years on commonapp.org I have read that you must send the grades of your last three years.

Right???
I’m confused.</p>
<p>@ edoardo, when Feliz writes, “MIT will see all your grades since you started high school,” he/she refers to a student’s grades in 9th, 10th, and 11th-grade years. Thus, three years’ worth of grades. On the mid-year report, MIT asks you to provide your grades for the first semester or trimester of your senior year: 12th grade.</p>
<p>I was misleading my school system is very different from US system. 
my 9th year hasn’t been so good, my average was 7 out of 10, but we can’t make a comparison between US grades and Italian, in my country always 10 is not considered.</p>
<p>The 8th and 9th years are not very important in my school system, so maybe college will accept my school grades of 10th and 12th.</p>
