<p>Is it possible to get into TAMS even if you had a few bad grades in middle school and freshman year?
Or are they not willing to look at your application at all?</p>
<p>What is the average GPA of people accepted?</p>
<p>TAMS, possibly even more so than most top colleges, looks at students very holistically. GPA is certainly a factor, but so are the interviews, interview day math tests, demonstrated interest in math & science, and “fit” for the demands of early entrance.</p>
<p>A few Bs and Cs should not be an automatic disqualification unless all of them are in maths & sciences. </p>
<p>If by “bad grades” you mean a few Fs, that could be a different matter.</p>
<p>Let’s say that I have a high Bs for both my math and science. Is that still ok?</p>
<p>As much as I hate giving this answer, it depends. Bs won’t disqualify you, but will hurt you a little. Cs and Fs in high school might severely hurt your application. The holistic review process majorly takes in gender and original high school.</p>
