<p>They don't consider any of an applicant's freshman year grades, and I just wanted to check with you guys about grades before freshman year. </p>

<p>I have 4 classes from middle school that are on my high school transcript. I just wanted to make sure that Princeton wouldn't look at those I ether.</p>

<p>My understanding is that they use marks from the 10th, 11th and 12th grades in the consideration process. If earlier grades appear on the transcript, I don’t know how they cannot “see” those but I don’t believe they are used in admission decision making.</p>
