[quote=Anonymous] when you look at the total admitted pop the gpa thing is not equal across the board.     It matters more when they compare your geo or maybe a magnet school like TJ.  A student at TJ may not get the opportunities with a 3.7 as a Westfield, Woodbridge or Chantilly high, etc….

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gpa is just one aspect of the app.  This is no longer the leading criteria - at least what I’ve heard.  Apply to schools you want to go to and let reject, it’s always a no until you ask.

quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a TJ junior student GPA has about 3.45 unweighted/3.98 weighted at the end of this academic year, are they above or below the middle of the class? what in-state colleges and majors can one target with this GPA? Is there anyway to find out what the midpoint GPA is for a class? recent TJ school profile says it ranged from 3.255 to 4.663; it appears to be unweighted? [/quote]

Sounds like the middle.  What are their SAT scores.  If they are below 1540, I'd say you should look to W&M, JMU, VCU, GMU as targets.[/quote][/quote]
Student academics including GPA is a major part of the admissions decision, according to common data set.  If it comes to deciding between two high GPA students, that were extra curricular come in.  A low GPA applicant especially with a bunch of Cs may not even make it to the initial cut.
