To many absences and tardies? HELP!

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>I have missed
9th grade = 14 absences and 0 tardies
10 grade = 14 absences 0 tardies
11 grade = 16 absences 8 tardies</p>

<p>is that bad when applying to highly ranked schools like JHU and
ivies and direct medical programs?</p>

<p>Hm I’m not sure…
If it makes you feel any better, I missed 9 days of school in April alone xD
They were excused though.</p>

3

<p>haha thanks =]
all of mine were excused as well</p>

<p>anyone else have a clue?</p>

4

<p>does anyone else have any ideas? =] </p>

<p>thank you</p>

<p>I don’t think they look at your punctuality that much. But if its over half the school year, then I guess that can raise a concern. Just don’t do that in college you may fail a class or two.</p>

<p>haha thanks =]
that makes me feel a lot better!</p>

7

<p>go to school</p>

<p>Do they send this data to colleges? I don’t really think it matters even if they do. If they don’t, well then colleges have no way of knowing so it doesn’t matter.</p>

<p>It doesn’t really mater. Many really good students have lots of excused absences since many competitions/awards/internships are out of school</p>

<p>^ true.</p>

<p>I missed 2 days for this arts competition (sponsored by school), 4 days for tennis (school tennis), and 3 days for being sick. <— april

in december, i missed 3 days for a leadership conference in another state (sponsored by school).
