<p>I had my midterm report completed today for two schools that require it. Should I send it to the few others that don't, though? I didn't do as well as I had hoped in two classes because we've only had one graded assignment in each, so it doesn't really look outstanding.</p>
<p>Comparative Government: A-
Sociology: A
History of China: A
Calculus II: B
Philosophy: B+</p>
<p>The two B grades hurt. They'll both improve at least one notch by the end of the term with more assignments (I've already spoken with both professors a lot about what I need to do to improve) but as it stands now it isn't the most attractive thing to send away to those not needing it. Is it worth it for showing the A/A/A- or should I just avoid it?</p>
<p>I sent mine, but I had three As and one A-. They can’t necessarily penalize you for going the extra mile. If your midterm grades reflect a “preliminary” GPA that is equal to or higher than your cumulative GPA and if one of those classes you’re getting an A-/A in is for your major, I would send it (e.g. sociology major A so that would look good).</p>
<p>If you’re pleased with your grades and think they’ll help in your admissions, send them in. If not, don’t send them, especially if it’s not required. You’re trying to give the best impression of yourself.</p>
<p>If your mid term GPA is lower than you cumulative, I would not send it. If your mid term GPA is higher than cumulative, showing positive grade trend, then send it.</p>
