[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course they look at weighted GPA. Colleges want students who take challenging courses; anyone can sandbag and take easy courses to get a high GPA. Those kids also usually struggle their first year in college. [/quote]

Not really accurate. And no, weighted is not really looked at either, as nowhere in the NCAA GPA scores does it list weighted vs non-weighted. Its just GPA. So your freshman and sophomore year grades are very important in the core subjects. Nail those and your fine. No worse than a B+/A- and no one is off the list. But start slipping to a B/B- in the core and you are clearly looking at another rung of the ladder. Nothing wrong with that its just reality. Welcome to the post-Varsity Blues world. No one wants to take a risk on someone who is going to cost them more in academic support resources for a non-revenue program. Its really just that simple, especially when there are a lot of good kids out there playing in competitive leagues.[/quote]
