<p>Well, lets say the professor writes down A+, As = 4.0 for all classes (calc 3, accounting 271, honors writing, macro econ psych discussion)</p>
<p>Will adcoms find that the 2 A+'s in calc 3 and Accounting is FISHY? (University of Michigan Ross--it's impossible to get an A in accounting)</p>
<p>...and then CALL The school to find out?</p>
<p>I'm afraid I can't "hold on" to the A's for long...I don't want them to know that the midterm report does NOT match their phone call</p>
<p>Though I am worried about this too, I think it's obvious that in the interim time in between the student filling out the midterm report and the admissions officers sitting down and looking at it, your grade may have changed in the class. I doubt they call schools, but as long as your prof doesn't DENY signing the form, it should be ok. But I am just using reasoning here.</p>
<p>are you already at midterm? If not, definently wait until as close as possible. My official "mid-semester" point is March 2nd, but the mailing date is March 1st, so the provious week I'm sending and email to all of my professors letting them know that I will need my grade and a signature by that Wednesday (all of my classes except for one are held at least once by Thursday, and the other one will not be hard to get), and then i'll postmark the letter March 1, even though most schools don't care about the date they recieve it as long as its close.
As for them calling, they're going to recieve hundreds, if not thousands, of semester reports. They don't have time to call, so its called the Honor Code. However, if you're final grades are significantly lower (ie an A is a C+, and it happens in multiple courses) in the end, then I would start to worry. But as eklipze said, as long as the professors can verify they signed the form, don't sweat it.</p>
<p>"but as long as your prof doesn't DENY signing the form"</p>
<p>what? when?</p>
