[quote=Anonymous]OP you have to put some guess work into the incoming freshman GPA. If it is 3.8-4.0 it is likely unweighted, unless it is a low ranking college and then it could well be weighted. If you look at the UC's you see they break down the average GPA for incoming freshman and its normally OVER 4.0 so you can assume it's all weighted. However each UC will have their own matrix for weighting. For instance, in-state kids get a bump for AP classes and Honors classes (tho there are fewer in the state schools in CA than in the DMV). Applicants outside of CA will get a bump only for their AP's not Honors classes and will be expected to also have a higher GPA overall. So as you can see there are variations within variations. I would suggest putting a list of colleges of interest together and doing a deep dive - on their websites and via their admissions offices, to find out what you can. [/quote]
