[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I’m actually surprised you only noticed this issue now! [/b] If you have two kids both taking the same 7 AP classes, but one of them also takes an additional 8th elective (standard or honors) class. Then the one taking 7 classes will have a full GPA of 5.0, but the one taking an additional class will have a lower GPA. Even without this issue, the difficulty of each AP class varies a lot. That’s why GPA is just a reference figure and schools tend not to strictly rank their students. The top colleges look at your full transcript instead of this figure.[/quote] They actually [b]quietly completely changed what was in the Coursebook[/b]. I would have noticed this from the get-go! Thanks for responding! -OP[/quote] But isn’t this how GPA has always been calculated? What was it like before the change?[/quote]
