[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the GPA based on just middle school and freshman grades, or are you estimating final sophomore year grades in the GPA calculation? I have a soon-to-be junior but his grades are sort of up in the air (could finish the year with all A/A-s or could get a whole load of B+s based on how things look right now).  Even after the dust settles, a lot could change next year.

Some schools (both in-state and out-of-state) will use the weighted GPA (i.e., the only one that appears on the FCPS transcript). Florida State, for example, bases their merit scholarships on weighted GPA and test scores (they offer in-state tuition or half off OOS tuition depending on qualifications). A lot of the larger scholarships for OOS students seem to come from public universities in the south (Alabama has pretty huge scholarships) and western states like Wyoming and Montana. [/quote]

Thanks for your reply. The GPA is estimating final sophomore year grades. Good to know about the weighted GPA.[/quote]
