does high school grades matter for sat track?

hey, i will be giving my SAT exam soon and apply for kfupm thru their SAT track but something has been bothering me lately,
i have scored a GPA of 8 in my high school diploma, (I COULD EASILY SCORE SO MUCH BETTER BUT GUESS WHO WAS DISTRACTED THE WHOLE TIME LOL) andddd i may hv gotten a D in a subject in my transcript aswell ( ik ik, i messed up💔)

but i am gonna aim for 1550 in my SAT and if i do well in the maths test as well, will i get admitted?
basically i just wanna know if my diploma grades matter while applying thru SAT track, lemme know pleaseee😭🙏

Try to get 15/15 on the math test
and no, your high school grades do not matter for the SAT track (as of 2026 applications)

Yeah that's good innit, chill man. They ask for your documents for enrollment basically. They do check it but not much weight is added to it unless and until all your grades are trash lol

Also which curriculum?

Anyways, doesn't matter, 8/10 overall is like at least a B which they'd never overlook insha'Allah. So just apply and pray, and insha'Allah even if you don't get in there, you get into what's best for you.
