[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. These comments are so helpful. Thank you. I have heard that Sidwell's grading system is tougher than GDS's. Do you think this is true? Also, I heard something about Sidwell not calculating GPA and/or class rank. Don't colleges want this info? Tia[/quote] Sidwell hasn't done class rank for years (at least 35 based on personal experience). Many independent schools don't do class rank and it doesn't seem to be an issue for colleges. Not sure about the GPA thing but most selective colleges have their own approach to calculating GPA and dealing with normalizing for honors/AP level classes (this doesn't really apply to Sidwell since they don't do weighted GPAs).[/quote]
