<p>i have a question. i got my school principal to fill out the secondary school report/recommendation, because the principal knows me really really well. but i kinda dont want to ask him to fill out another 'recommendation' (he filled out 5 for me), so is it ok if i get my counselor to do the midyear report?</p>
<p>That's perfectly fine.</p>
<p>Usually it's the counselor who does the MYR anyways, so yeah.</p>
<p>[boolah boolah boolah!]</p>
<p>I have another question:
If I had been getting mostly A+ and a few As (and one A-), but senior year I get all As and no A+s at all, do you think this would look bad? Because in comparison to prev. years, my grade did drop. Note: 1. my school grades on an A+ system, not an A system, as some other high schools do. 2. I wasn't accepted ED; I'm applying RD.</p>
<p>You're fine. Really. That's just...ridiculous to think otherwise.</p>
<p>Oh. Some may not believe me, but I was really, really stressed out about this. And also, it's easier for the adcoms to put someone in the maybe or reject pile (and not the auto accept pile) than to rescind admission because of grades. And clarification: A+= 4.5, A = 4.17. So an A =/= 4.0 at my school. But okay.</p>
<p>my friend and i were wondering about that--we figure just as long as you "dont drop from a 3.98 to a 2.0" itll be ok. of course, if you put some effort into it, you wont need to worry 'bout it right? :)</p>

The fact that you were ED will definitely be reflected in your file, but I assume that the checks won't really matter anymore?

I'm planning on checking "ED" with a "deferred" written beside it, as Kebree did. I believe that we're still considered ED applicants, with whatever connotations that has. </p>
<p>That said, I doubt which box we check on the midyear report matters much, if at all. :)</p>
