Will I still be able to get into a good college?

Question

I've had straight A's all my life but in 7th grade i slipped up a lot and got mostly C's and low B's at my new school, I'm going to 8th grade this year if i continue my straight A's will i still be able to get to a good college?

Answer 1

Yeah man, don't sweat it.  Middle school grades really don't matter at all to be honest.  Good grades in High School and getting involved in sports and clubs are good ways to help your path to college.

Answer 2

To tell you the truth, your high school grades matter a heck of a lot more than middle and elementary school grades; I don't think they even check these grades.So, if you remain serious about your studies, and try to get only A's and B's in high school (preferably A's), you will be able to get into any college you like. Just so you know, any college is "good," they teach what they say they're going to teach, it's just that some colleges are more prestigious than others, but you will get a quality education with any college you attend. Good luck; always take your studies seriously, and I hope this helps :)

Answer 3

Yes.  Do well in high school and you will be fine.

Answer 4

who cares about junior high? do well in high school. especially junior year ;)

Answer 5

Yeah, get A's, Be in honor societies, excel in extracurricular activities, and PREPARE FOR YOUR STANDARDIZED TESTS-that's a big part, ACT and SAT scores are crucial.

Answer 6

Colleges mostly look at your grades in High school. Not middle school. So do very good in HS.
