<p>If so, my GPA and class rank can potentially rise if I do well in the first semester?</p>
<p>Are you asking about first quarter senior year grades and the GPA used by admissions committees?</p>
<p>If they have the grades, it will be factored in to your GPA that the colleges use.</p>
<p>Your GPA depends on what YOU send them.
So if you send them your transcript with 1st quarter grades, your GPA will include 1st quarter grades… but then again my school does GPA based on semester so only my grades would be on the transcript and it wouldnt affect my GPA officially.
Some schools like UMich only take your GPA from 10th and 11th grade.</p>
<p>What if my first quarter grade will not appear on the transcript but my school will send it separately?</p>
