[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] It’s MCPS. As has been discussed many times on this board, MCPS gives a full one point bump for honors classes, just as they do for APs. Similarly for IB HL vs SL. They don’t distinguish between honors and AP like many Virginia schools do. [/quote]
