Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knows anything about this.
I’m applying to a summer camp that calls for the counselor to send in a “current transcript”. Our first semester ended in January and the first term of the new semester ended last week. In our school, only semester grades are on the final transcript and get tallied into the GPA. My semester grades have been straight As but I received a very high B “0.5 points off…” in Biology last term (I completely messed up an entire essay on the test). However, the past few days were the first few days of the second term and my grades are…well…not so stellar. Since it’s the first few days, we’ve barely done any graded assignments so getting a 4/5 points on a homework brings my term 2 down to a C and my semester average to a B (both terms are weighted equally). I asked the counselor a few days ago about the paperwork and she said she’d be glad to get it done and mailed for me.
I’m just wondering, what does “current transcript” include? Do you think it’ll include my semester 2 term 2 grades even though it’s only been a few days into the grading period? I’m applying to a selective math and science camp and I really don’t think Bs and Cs are going to increase my chances of getting in…
