Do Maryland high schools weight their HS courses differently? FCPS is +.5 for honors and +1 for AP

Arlington doesn’t even weight honors. Weighted GPAs are worthless.

In state deferred

I have mixed feelings. DC is in at Michigan, but was going to feel pressure to go to UvA. I think Michigan wins in every category, but tuition and maybe weather. DC never lived UVA, but applied bc it made sense. Am I bummed, relieved or both?
