[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is an awful GPA anywhere.[/quote Um, no. Do you know NCS? [b]Her DD would likely have earned a 4.5 at any of the top local public high schools. [/b] NCS does not grade infate, nor does it give A's freely.[/quote] Um, no. First the basics: in public schools, weights are only given for AP courses, not for honors courses. Now the reasons you're wrong: (a) AP courses can be very, very difficult, not an "easy A" by any stretch, and (b) public schools calculate both weighted and unweighted GPAs, and nobody pays any attention to the weighted GPAs because the colleges only use the unweighted.[/quote]
