[quote=Anonymous]Big news, indeed. Funny thing was that the UCs have been weighing GPA more heavily than SAT for years. But, this is one of those things, "be careful what you wish for." They may awaken a sleeping giant, the students at very competitive Bay Area high schools. Nothing about GPA is standardized. All ironic in light of the February task force study that recommended keeping standardized tests. We shall see whether UCs, under their current leadership, decide whether to appeal the ruling. In the big picture, it feels weird that this is being litigated. Really glad we don't live in CA, but mildly concerned with the potential for further-reaching effects. Already this affects decisions - parents who are paying attention will make sure their kids attend schools with more grade inflation and will harp on those grades for all of high school, not an awesome development.[/quote]
