[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On CDS, it's as reported on applications. It's a mix of weighted and unweighted, which makes it pretty meaningless.[/quote] Really? Do you mean some schools use weighted and some dont or that even within a school it is a mix? I guess I always assumed it was unweighted grades! I wonder how my kid could tell if it might be a good fit in terms of a target school. (Not to mention weighted averages are all calculated differently.... I know that honors gets a bump at the local HS which is not always the case everywhere, but on the other hand, Honors/AP are only a .5 bump, not a 1...and there are no A+ grades period). I mean I understand that even grades on the same scale can be subjective - even within a school, depending on the teacher...but this whole college application stuff is sort of bananas.[/quote]
