It has to be Math 7 Honors.

Math 7 HR and Algebra 1 HR are two different challenge level, but weighted the same?

Yep. There is no weighting for honors vs. regular, and there is no bonus for being on a more difficult math track. If we ignore essay based points and just look at GPA:

If Kid 1 is taking AAP for all subjects and is in pre-calc Honors in 8th, got As in everything except 1 A- in 7th grade AAP English, and
Kid 2 is taking honors social studies and science, regular English, and Algebra I in 8th, but got As in everything, Kid 2 will have more "points" for GPA in the application process.

Unweighted, "have a 3.5 or higher GPA in all core academic courses (math, science, social studies, English/language arts, and if taken for high school credit, world language)."
