  • Does MIT look at middle school grades?

    Posted by admin on February 25th, 2010 and filed under middle school grades | 2 Comments »

    I’m an eighth grader in Calculus 1 (not so ordinary, as you can see). I have been getting all As in the math courses, A-s and As in science, and if it matters, the lowest grade I got was a B- in english. Would they look at this, if yes, then would this be good?

    No, colleges don’t care what you did before 8th grade except in very specific circumstances, like taking calculus before starting high school. If those grades appear on your high school transcript, they’ll see them – if they don’t, they won’t. But you’ll have to start taking college math classes next – or just go to college.

      No, MIT and other colleges only look at the work you do in high school. You should keep up the good work in math and really work hard in english. Your math is really impressive, btw. :)
