<p>Hi everyone and thanks for reading!!</p>

<p>I am a soon to be senior who has a foreign record for his 9th grade: hence, when I came here, the foreign record was kind of messed up. I ended with a 9th grade that was much weaker than my 10th and 11th grade (ironic isn't it? I perform better when the language I use at school is a new one...). There is no way I can change how my foreign transcript was interpreted. However, I've heard some school don't consider 9th grade grades, meaning I could be considered by them with a pristine record that really do reflect what I can do (and not what other people thought I did in another country...). </p>

<p>Do you know of any schools like that? Can you make a list of them?</p>

<p>I know, I'm kind of late.. haha but hey, better now to choose my school than after the deadline :)</p>

<p>Thanks so much.</p>

<p>Yeah, I'd like to know that question, cos if I would probably be valedictorian if I'm ranked according to 10th/11th grade GPA :)</p>

<p>BTW, thanks a lot for the responses: Definitely opened to me some dreamful possibilities :) (Princeton? haha)</p>
