[quote=Anonymous]You need to know your school's weighting scheme. It's probably in a student handbook. For example, at APS HS's the weight is +1 for AP, IB, DE classes. No weight for "intensified" (aka honors). Unweighted A = 4, B+=3.5, B=3 etc. (they don't give minus grades) So if there are 7 classes with 2 B+ and the rest As, all regular or honors, that would be (4 + 4 + 4+ 4+ 4+ 3.5 + 3.5)/7 = 3.86 If 3 of those As were in AP classes, you'd get: (5 + 5 + 5+ 4+ 4+ 3.5 + 3.5)/7 = 4.28 weighted (but still 3.86 unweighted)[/quote]
