<p>For college I've heard that its ok to have mediocre grades for 7,8, and 9th grades. 10th grade grades matter, but not much.
If I work hard junior year, and do stellar, then do I still have a shot at the BS/MD programs. </p>
<p>Please evaluate the last statement and NOT the first about college.</p>
<p>Everything matters...but I don't see why 7th or 8th grade would show up on your high school transcript unless you went to a school that was 7-12 like I did.</p>
<p>yup lol. I did. I go to a 7-12 school where 8-12 grades are sent to colleges =.=</p>
<p>Ouch, 7-12 is high school?</p>
<p>That's tough..sorry XD</p>
<p>Let me guess. HCHS?</p>
<p>Everything that is reported is considered. Upwards trends are good.</p>
<p>For BS/MD all 4 years of HS have to be almost perfect in addition to other requirements and you still will be rejected from some of them before inverview.</p>
