The math is incorrect here. With 11APs weighted gpa has to be higher if unweighted is 4.0 The spread between unweighted and weighted has to be larger. So one of these numbers are incorrect. [/quote]

Oh yes I was wrong. Unweighted went down first semester because of a B+ in AP Spanish, first one ever. Will be closer to 4.4/ 3.9x at graduation, will probably end with a B+ in that AP this year (senior).

No weighting in honors where we are, just AP and DE.  Was 4.22/ 4.0 end of junior year when applied. This year all AP/DE. Last year 5/7 AP, 2 regular (an elective and Spanish 5). 1 AP in 10th.[/quote]

Congrats to you kid!!!  Do you mind sharing any AP exam scores?  I noticed in various Reddit posts where kids with high 1500s and 36 ACT scores but average AP scores (4s and 3s)  get rejected everywhere except state schools.  My take this year the colleges might be emphasizing AP exam scores which is confirmation of GPA and measure of success at college based on the data they have about their own enrolled students.

AP Euro 10th grade- 3 (did not submit anywhere)

Submitted all 11th grade scores to all schools. We had read not to submit unless 5s, but he only had the one 5 and we didn't want to submit just the one.  Most all schools give credit for 4s and 5s so we felt it was fine to submit them.
APUSH 4
AP CS Principles 4
AP Language 4
AP Calculus BC 5 (AB score 5)
AP Physics C/ Mech 4

Taking 5 more AP this year but haven't tested so no scores on those yet (Econ, Literature, Physics C Mag, Gov, Spanish) .
DE this year are MV Calculus, Linear Alg, Diff Eq.
