[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So in OP example what is the GPA. I have to admit, I don't really get it either.[/quote] It depends how many classes the DC had overall. But it would be a 5+5 for the APs, plus 4 x number of non AP/honors classes divided by total classes. If the DC had honors classes those count for 5 points as well. 5 AP/honors and 2 non AP/honors would be: 5x5=25 2x4=8 (25+8)/7=4.71[/quote] [b]Assuming the student gets an A in every class.[/b] An A for a regular class is a 4, in an honors or AP class, it’s a 5. A B in a regular class is a 3.0. In AP, it’s 4.0. Pretend it’s college with only 4 classes per semester. Two As and two Bs would be 4+4+3+3=14 14/4=3.5. If it’s all weighted, it’s 4+4+5+5= 18/4=4.5 weighted gpa. If only the classes wit Bs are weighted, it’s 4+4+4+4, and the weighted gps is 4.0. [/quote] OP said the kid had a 4.0 so I assume that was unweighted, so all As[/quote]
