I would imagine the opposite. The new policy picks the very top students not just those who could afford test prep.


OMG you guys. PLEASE don't pollute this thread too with that same back & forth!!!!

This is final GPA not when applying.


Maybe minus .1 for all from above for the end-of-Junior year?

that's a fair adjustment

How many at the bottom of the class can afford to take PE pass/fail? None.
On the other hand, top students dont need the PE grade, especially if they expect a perfect overall unweighted. If Colleges take notice, they would interpret it that way.

I would assume 4.2 since an unweighted would be below 4.0

DD is a junior Class of 2025 at TJ and has a GPA of 4.2 - any idea on where she is possibly placed in the class ranking. Trying to look at college options and from our understanding kids are compared against their HS peers. Thank you in advance.
