[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, it's a bit shocking to see how differently each district applies weightings. Seems like there could be a standard for that...... We're in FCPS, so 0.5 bump for honors and 1.0 bump for AP/DE. Kid is a junior now. Had honors math classes in 7th/8th that counted for high school credit, several honors in 9th, 1 AP and a few honors in 10th. GPA at the end of 10th was 4.2. Has 4 AP/DE classes this year, so the GPA should go up. It would be way higher if those honors classes got a full 1.0 bump! Thankfully every college we've talked to so far (which is only a couple, he's just starting to think about college) says they look at grades and rigor, not a straight weighed GPA from the school.
