[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wondering if my kid should take PE P/F during the school year to bump up his GPA? All the summer school kids are doing that.[/quote] There is zero reason to do this. Fcps doesn't do class rank and colleges recalculate gpas using their own formulas. Pass/fail over the summer is usually done to decrease stress, since it is so time intensive [/quote] The reason to do this is to increase your weighted GPA. Lots of kids do this. And PE isn’t hard to get an A in in the summer. This kids all do it for the GPA boost. We can play the game too.[/quote] But what is the point of increasing your weighted GPA if there is no class rank?[/quote] Ask the Asians and Indian kids - they all do it to get the highest weighted GPA possible. And they try to take more AP electives.[/quote]
