im still a lil confuse about NHS....how they calculate if your grades qualify....do they take the grade from the end of each term and find the average of them? or do they look at the most recent? or do you must get 85+ avg in all the terms to be qualify?from your sophmore year, do they only look at the first term grade or something since they give the application in sophmore year?

They look at your overall transcript average as far as I know. If you have specific questions, PM MaMoNy.

[helloheyhi]

the overall transcript avg....is that they add up the grade from all the terms and average it?

Since you're a freshman you prolly don't know what a transcript is. It's like a school record of all your grades in high school. The computer calculates your avg grade for the grades you've earned and that is how the NHS know if you qualify or not.

[helloheyhi]

then lets say you get 80 in both your terms in freshmen year and 95 in sophmore, does that mean you wont qualify for NHS? since the first two terms are only 80? or do they add 80+80+95 and divide by 3 to get 85? and it will qualify you for NHS?

if averages work like that, then yes, you will be qualified for nhs.

[helloheyhi]
