[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is a 4.5 weighted GPA really only the 90th percentile?[/quote] If it’s MCPS, it is less than the 90th percentile. It varies, but at Blair 26% have a 4.5 or higher and at Einstein 14% have a 4.5 or higher. I think it’s a larger percentage at places like Whitman and Churchill. [/quote] but again that is only MCPS. if this was in our LCPS, there were only probably 20 kids out of 400 with a 4.5 or higher. That was generally the cut off for top 5% last year in our school. You have to know what school you're talking about before you toss around generalities.[/quote] That was the point (that it depends on the school). The colleges get the school profiles so they know. The OP says that their kid is in at UMD so possibly is a MD resident but not MCPS. [/quote]
