[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does the admissions committee see the grades of all classes or just the core classes they use to calculate the MS GPA?  Does the committee see individual class grades?[/quote]

[b]If your child is scoring A grade 93-100% then GPA will be 4.0[/b][/quote]

This is incorrect, GPA is based on Raw score hence someone with 98% score will have higher GPA then student with 93% despite both have same grade. Avergae GPa needed for admission to TJ is 3.995 in 2022[/quote]

No. The original post was correct. Anything between 93%-100% (really, anything between 92.5%-100%, since they round up) is an A and is worth 4.0. FCPS doesn't distinguish between a 93% and a 98% for the purposes of GPA calculations.

if this is correct then almost alll the kids who got in (TJ stated 3.995 average GPA for admitted student for 2022) has to have 4.0 GPA with very few having GPA of 3.7.

What is making the difference? Essay/ alone? Considering, how essay is dumb down and Student portrait sheet probably same for all kids, they are going to have 3,000+ applicants with same score/rank!!  
Only differentiator is if you are FARM kid.

What a mess!!
