My freshman ended up with 4.93. Is it possible to have a higher weighted GPA? That did sound crazy high to me.


My kid had a 5.0 freshman year but took chorus as a sophomore, PE as a junior and earned 1 semester B which resulted is 4.89. Health A taken over summer so should go up after Health B this summer

It’s because everything almost all of them take is weighted until phys ed. So my rising senior has a 5.0 WGPA and 4.0 GPS. A 4.74 means a a significant number of Bs, which with grade inflation is not that normal for that group.


Did they not take PE?
