People need to say which school system. We are in APS which doesn’t give extra points for honors/intensified like FCPS does. Seems to mean lower weighted GPAs. But yes, unweighted is what matters.

wgpa is secondary, primary is the gpa. counselor probably looked at the gpa and made their prediction.

I know people that got into Hopkins and ivies that were rejected from UVA. It’s a strange admissions there and always has been - not so predictable

That's how we're going into this. This year has been pretty random - we've seen separate kids with acceptance/deferrals flipped from corresponding schools, so whatever....

Yeah but when one is in-state tuition and one isn’t, it matters.

Are you at a NoVa public HS? Our school SCOIR also shows that to be right around the cutoff. Hoping very high standardized test scores and 5s on all AP exams help.

stress levels at my house just increased significantly. I was in another room when DD found out and I could feel the air in the house become charged. Buckle up.
