[quote=Anonymous]Will depend on the reason for the 4.67 GPA and how your DC's grades in the most rigorous classes compared to their classmates. A surprisingly high % of graduates from our different Bethesda-area HS had 4.8 and above, (indicating straight or near straight As with at most one or two unweighted classes other than PE), and that seemed to be the point at which UMD turned almost entirely green on scattergrams. Of course plenty of kids got in with lower than 4.8, but once you are out of the green sea, it's really a crap shoot. Only UMD admissions can tell you relative weight of GPA v test scores, but I would guess that once you are above a particular score threshold, GPA matters more, esp in the MCPS schools where half the class applies to UMD.
