[quote=Anonymous]With some schools weighting AP/IB classes and others not, and most reliable sources and even forum posters not indicating whether they are referring to weighted or unweighted GPA, most grade discussion is useless and misleading. And for what it's worth, my kid is working her ass off for her 3.7 UW GPA in an FCPS high school, and is doing better than many of her friends who are also taking all honors classes. So no, they don't just hand out As, at least not at some schools. If your kid is getting straight As without effort, they are either a flipping genius, or you need to seriously reconsider their school before they fall on their face in college. [/quote]
