I think UGA recalculates GPA and only boost is given for AP, DE, IB

Got a cite for that?

I think gpa is very school district dependent - for example, it seems like MCPS gives more weight than FCPS to honors classes. So what would be low for one school district isn’t for another -

Accepted DC poster here - also private - 4.3 gpa - all As but not as many AP courses offered as elsewhere (mainly honors). Rigor is high.

I posted and it is a private school GPA. It isn’t low at our school.

Are these the weighted GPA? Seems low.

Pp here, whose kid was deferred - I think UGA is very competitive right now

State schools do not usually yield protect

They’re not accepting your over qualified kids because they’re assuming they can do much better (and they can).

Also deferred - 1400 SAT, 4.2 gpa. It was his top choice

DC accepted! 32 ACT, 4.3 GPA

DC deferred. 4.3 GPA, 35 ACT

35 ACT was the 75% (test required)!!!

I think UGA and similar schools have HIGHER standardized test results than some if not all Ivies.

I have no connection to UGA but this is wild.

DC deferred. 34 act 4.2 gpa
