I want to go to Stanford. My GPA in 6th through 8th was a 4.0.

Middle school grades won’t count for getting into college, but if you want to get into a good high school, they may. harvard and stanford are Ivy league colleges so they probably will want very good grades! you won’t have to worry if you don’t get a 4.0 the entire time, seeing as you’ll have three report cards each year for four years. my best guess is to keep it above 3.5, and knowing you, you DEFINETLY will. not all middle schools offer high school classes, so don’t worry a/b that. but you eally should be choosing what college you want now. you don’t know what career you want, so you should wait. then, hen you are ready to go the college and know what you want to do, you should choose a college with a very good program for that. although, Ivy league colleges are still, in my opnion, the best!

Actually, none of your grades in middle school count, unless you take any high school classes while you are at middle school. Though you probably will if you are Stanford/Harvard material. As far as the high school classes I took in middle school, I got A’s in all of them.
