[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]At our FCPS school, 3.9w is needed for JMU[/b] and 4.1w for VT (with some exceptions lower for certain majors and much higher needed for engineering). So is his unweighted more like a 3.3? You can do the math pretty quickly. Are you including projected junior year grades? I know my daughter’s GPA jumped up after junior year, due to the number of weighted classes. Penn State main campus, fall start, is generally looking for 3.7 UNweighted.[/quote] I don't know what the PP is talking about, but I can guarantee you it is NOT accurate. A 3.4 and a 1270 gets you in at JMU. That's based on 706 applicant data points at one of the upper (but not a Langley/McLean) FCPS HS. OP, your son is definitely IN at JMU. No bones about it. VT depends on the major. If it's com sci or engineering, then it's a no. [/quote]
