Yes! Of Course!
You need to be really smart and have gotten really good grades in high school.
Yes! Your freshman year grades are a part of your overall GPA (grade point average), which is a major factor in admission to any college. If your freshman year grades are poor, sorry to say that Harvard is unlikely to accept you since the are so competitive. However, there are many fine universities that may even grant you an academic scholarship if you are able to substantially improve your grades during your sophomore, junior and senior years. The way most colleges look at it: they'd rather take a student who started with low grades and improves over his/her high school career than take a student who had high freshman grades but poor grades in senior year.
Sixth grade is intermediate grade and 7-8th are middle school. The 9th gradeis high school Freshman.
High School names and years/grades are: 9th grade = Freshman |10th grade = Sophomore |11th grade = Junior |12th grade = Senior (the | is to separate it )
Get really good grades in college. High school will not matter as much as the college grades to get into law school.
77% of incoming freshman had a high school GPA of 3.75 or higher; 88% were above a 3.5 GPA, so you need to consistently achieve grades between an A+ and B+.
AnswerMost colleges will allow for an occasional misstep, especially if you do well on your SAT's
Freshman is the first year in high school or college
What grades are in middle school depends upon the school district. It is the 2 or 3 grades between elementary school and high school. It includes 7th & 8th grades, but might also have either the 6th or 9th grades. The school district where I grew up had junior high schools with 7th, 8th and 9th grades. They still do, but have changed to calling them "middle school". Where my children grew up, middle school was, and still is, 7th and 8th grades.
No, usually high school freshman start as 9th graders. You can be a freshman in high school but that does have a number grade.
Yeah! there should be grades in high school
I'm not going to research West Point's standards for you, I think you are capable enough of figuring that out. Really, for any college you want your high school grades to be consistent, so if you were to apply you don't want the college looking at your freshman grades and thinking, "This person was really lazy freshman year." Colleges want people they know who aren't going to slack off.
