Is that mildly impressive to colleges? And no, my published transcript has an unweighted GPA on it. It said I had around a 3.982/4.0

It's okay to brag about this.  I would, but then again I was always one of the straight-A students, on the Student Council, and a bit of a troublemaker.

I think it's decent. Nothing amazing, but certainly better than most I'd say. If you could aim for a 3.5 that would be better.

Thats a 3.4 on the 4.0 scale.

My mood ring turned black, uh oh.

On a 6.0 scale? No that's not impressive.

Thats a 3.4 on the 4.0 scale.

This, that is just a little bit below average of what people normally get.

So I don't really know how your school is working their GPAs, and thus it's pretty impossible to comment on what colleges may or may not think.

3.9815/4 =/= 5.15/6

Well, if you get a 100 in a non-advanced class, that goes down as 5.0 points on your weighted GPA. Since 90-100 is an A, it goes down as 4.0 points on your unweighted GPA. If you get a 100 in an advanced class, it goes down as 6.0 points on your weighted GPA. However, it still counts as 4.0 points on your unweighted GPA.

Because I had a mix of non-advanced and advanced classes, I have a low weighted GPA, but a high unweighted GPA.

So, no, your weighted GPA won't be impressive to anyone most likely, since they won't even know what it is.

Your unweighted is really the only thing that matters.
