[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The UCs prize GPA above all else. They’re more likely to admit a kid who gets an A in a CP class than a student who gets a B in tough AP class. I find it incomprehensible. The student with a B is leaps and bounds more academically prepared than kids in CP classes. They don’t seem at all interested in changing the system either.[/quote] Absolutely not true. UCs count how many UC approved honors/AP/community college classes a student has taken. Additionally the top UCs also calculate uncapped GPA alongside capped GPA. They also look at strength in schedule and how rigorous your schedule was in comparison to the opportunities at your high school. [/quote] Yes, we all know what they say on paper. What they do in practice is very different. I see it year in and year out for in-state students. [/quote]
