[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Neat trick! Do a lot of kids do this? It would seem to benefit anyone who has over a 4.0 weighted GPA. However, it will lower your unweighted GPA (unless you already have a perfect 4.0 unweighted).[/quote] Most kids DO NOT do this beyond the required EPF class. College admission officers want to see grades for academic classes. Take a look at the excellent admissions blog of Dean J Associate Admissions at UVA: http://uvaapplication.blogspot.com/ and this post on her Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/UVaDeanJ/status/950549871936835584 where she says "I'm looking at applicants from one of my schools in GPA order. The programs are all over the map. Remember that transcripts tell stories that GPAs don't. #UVA #UVA22 #collegeapplications" [/quote] Dean Jeannine Lalonde is an Associate Dean of Admissions at UVA assigned to much of Northern VA including FCPS.[/quote]
