[quote=Anonymous][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]
What were her IB scores? Was she in the IBDP?

There is IB AAF, IB Precalc, and then IB Analysis and Stats,  and IB MVC Difeq if you are at RM.

Are you sure it's IB Calc A/B?[/quote]
