[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear everyone. I asking about the very specific mathematical recalculation of GPAs schools do.  I understand that most/many add weight for APs classes but not for honors.

So asking about this class. Not overall holistic review of her application.

I am hearing that this may not be knowable at least not yet? I do hear that people do see the GPAs recalculated so wonder if people will be able to figure it out. [/quote]
I dont think you read the prior two responses. It doesnt matter whether or not a school weighs. Is it the most rigorous math class your student can take at this time?[/quote]

Yes. I did hear that.  Yes she is taking the most rigorous offered.  So recalculated GPAs don't matter?  Of course they do.

I hear this often.  The college will look at the classes offered and compare.  I get it for a holistic review (maybe).  If it gets to that.

But I have my doubts on whether a college that gets, say 50k plus applications, is able to do this for every single high school in the country.  I am sincerely asking how this is done?  Is there something flagged in their system?  Because no way each of the admissions people can know this and actually do their jobs.[/quote]
