Semester/Final Grades

<p>I'm not sure if my semester or final grades go down on my transcript. I'm worried because I nearly failed math first quarter and I need more time to raise my grade up to a B+ or A-, which I can do by the end of the year. However, my semester grade will be a C or C+ at best. So what's on the transcripts: semester or final?</p>

<p>You have to ask your school. Schools do it differently. At my school, both go as they are two utterly distinct grades.</p>

<p>both- atleast that's what my school sends on the transcripts. Last yr my 1st semester grades were 4 B+'s and 3 A's, 2nd sem. straight A's and final was in the middle w/ all A's and 2 B+'s. I'd prefer they only showed final grades but i think colleges like to see improvements/upward trends.</p>

<p>Yeah, like Kaatu pointed out, you should ask your school. My school does final grades only.</p>

<p>My final grades are the ones that go down on my transcript. But, as people already said, it's different at every school.</p>

<p>Colleges see semester grades, unfortunately.</p>

<p>usually it's both.</p>
