[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]depends entirely on your school's weighting policy, which varies district to district and also with privates. In my kids school, the valedictorian had something like a 4.70. My DS had a 4.6 and was in the top 3% of his class. Honors classes got a .5 bump and AP and DE got a full 1.0 bump.[/quote] Our (non-DMV) DC had a 4.0 uw/4.49w and wasn’t even top 10 [i]percent[/i] in their class of 400+. But DC got into all schools applied to and had 40+ DE credits that transferred (including their “A” letter grade so will start off with a very nice cumulative GPA!). So it’s all in what you make of it. [/quote] Similar situation here, 4.0uw/4.25-ish w, sufficient rigor (8 AP/DE), admitted to a T10. OP, grades are not standardized. Nor is GPA. There is no one size fits all answer to your question.[/quote] Congrats! PP What did he/she have for extracurriculars? How about SAT scores?[/quote]
