[quote=Anonymous]Hard to know how to make sense of any of this. I assume colleges can see through grade inflation and consider GPA as part of the "holistic approach" we hear a lot about. One rep a recent in-person college counseling event at our school said that every admissions office recalculates the GPA with their own measurement. I don't believe every kid has a 4.0 either. My DD is a junior at a Big 3 private and I can confirm that the vast majority of the kids have between about at 3.0-3.6 because the school has no grade inflation. This is a school that regularly sends kids to some of the top colleges. My niece, on the other hand went to a well respected public that was known for grade inflation (she had a 4.45GPA). She's at a good but not top state flagship. [/quote]
