[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The answer is weighted. The kid’s GPA is compared to the grade distribution at their school. Weighted GPA takes into account class rigor and grade. Only kids with lots of AP and good grades in them will be at the top of the distribution. You can’t compare GPA across schools because different schools offer different numbers of AP and Honors classes and weight them differently. Traditionally, standardized test scores allow colleges to compare student performance across high schools. [/quote] not all high schools send the grade distribution of the senior class to colleges, its very few that do that since it is looked at another way of ranking kids[/quote] Please list the name of a high school, especially a public one, that doesn’t submit a grade distribution. Also, how do you know. [/quote]
