[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for posting that link....a couple of things jump out: 1) a 3.8 GPA is regarded the same as a 4.0 for the purpose of their rubric...given how easy grading is (at least at my child's middle school), that's really interesting. A child who has two B+, two A-s and one A in the five core classes (and As in PE, Music, Art, and Health) would be given the same 5 points as a kid with all As. 2) The 31/36 points given to the interview is just bizarre. Where on earth did they come up with that ratio and do they provide the specific rubric for that anywhere? 86% weight for the subjective interview seems like a recipe for abuse.....[/quote] Your scenario in #1 would be a 3.6 not 3.8.[/quote] average of 3.3 + 3.3 + 3.7 + 3.7 + 4.0 + 4.0 *2 (for the 4 electives, each with 0.5 credit) = 3.75, rounded to 3.8[/quote] You wrote 5 core classes and said 2 B+ 2 A- and one A.[/quote]
