what about on transcript? Better grades perhaps but what shows up in transcript? Let's say they retook first semester of Honors Biology over summer. Honors Bio sem 1 will be listed as having been taken after Sem 2 H Bio.

SERIOUSLY?? That is legitimately shocking to me. How did they justify an A under the old system?? That is some ridiculous grade inflation!!’ It really makes all these high weighted gpa’s meaningless and unimpressive.
At my daughters private school a 90-93 is a A-, not even an A

^^ 4.96 and took PE already before senior year. All DC’s senior year classes are weighted.

It's about 4.83 after required courses and HS credits for middle school honors math courses.

It must be below 5.0 at graduation because you eventually have to take a PE course which can’t be honors.

Just wondering? How high can the weighted GPA go in MCPS?
