[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't figure out how the unweighted is a 3.8 and the weighted is a 4.6. In our FCPS HS, a weighted 4.6 would be probably the top 1-3 students out of 525+ seniors, so how is unweighted a 3.8? OP: Can you elaborate how the school weights grades? I know some give more weight for a 97-100, some weight classes up to a 6.0, etc. Also, where does your kid fall with a 4.6 as far as other kids in the same school? [/quote] Agreed. Does she have good AP scores? With no APs and test optional, this screams grade inflation. I would definitely invest in some good SAT prep. [/quote] AP Gov and AP U.S. History are 4s. The rest of her classes are IB as we're an IB school. She has taken a bunch of IB classes including IB Calc A/B her junior year, which is why she has a higher weighted GPA. We're at MCPS so we don't do class rank. [/quote]
