[quote=Anonymous]For the class of 2024 and earlier, the midpoint GPA for senior year has been around 4.38, with the bottom half ranging from 3.75 to 4.38, and the top half ranging from 4.39 to 4.66, excluding outliers. As long as a student's GPA is above 4.38, what matters more for college admissions is demonstrating course rigor. For example, a B+ in Organic Chemistry, which is two levels above honors Chemistry, is viewed more favorably than stopping at sophomore honors Chemistry with an A. This demonstrates that the student took on the most challenging courses "accessible" to them and didn't settle for the bare minimum honors Chemistry required for TJ graduation. For freshmen, a GPA of 4.20 or higher by year-end is a good start. Freshman 4.19 implies two Bs and rest As, and whether middle school credits got transferred as weighted. [/quote]
