High School Second Semester Grades

Applying to College
1

<p>I'm a solid A/A- student and have been for four years of high school. My history teacher is an idiot though and counted homework as a test grade and it brought my average for that marking period down to a C+. My final average for that class is a B+ for the year now.</p>

<p>I was just wondering, when your high school sends your transcript at the end of the year to the school you're going to, do the colleges look at the individual marking period grades or just the final year average?</p>

<p>And one C+ wouldn't be enough for my admissions to be revoked from Tufts, would it?</p>

<p>no, chill out</p>

<p>Don't worry about it. It's one grade--and it's one term. A B+ is a fine grade for end of the year. Honestly, college revoking of admission is VERY rare. It would only occur if you started getting straight Ds and Cs and were clearly slaking off and not trying. And even then it wouldn't necessarily happen. Bad grades happen on occation. Colleges know that. Plus, you're already in, so you can relax a bit ;). There's zero chance of your admission being revoked for that one grade.</p>
