-- Posted by iamsparta at 12:04 pm on June 25, 2009 what my unweighted GPA is? Ok, I'm in all AP/Honors classes. At my school, you get 5 extra points for being in AP/Honors classes. My weighted GPA is 3.7, currently, whereas my unweighted is quite a bit lower. However, on official transcripts, we just get numeric averages, with the 5 points already added in. Will colleges know about this? Obviously, I'd rather tell the my weighted gpa. From the stuff I've gotten, they ask for either. -- Posted by zamrambo at 12:06 pm on June 25, 2009 They might, but weighted is there for a reason. -- Posted by Shibs at 12:06 pm on June 25, 2009 My school doesn't give us any extra points for AP classes. I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question though. I'm sure it varies from college to college. -- Posted by in sane x at 12:07 pm on June 25, 2009 they shouldnt. bc the things u do in honors classes and AP other students would never be able to handle. So it wouldnt be fair to compare your unweighted average which could be lower than people who r in regular classes . its completely different curiculum. at least in my school it is. im in honors too -- Posted by dreamweaver at 12:07 pm on June 25, 2009 My high school was completely unweighted and I was never asked once about weighted or unweighted GPA scores. Of course that may depend on different states and such... -- Posted by JennyColada at 12:09 pm on June 25, 2009 I was ONLY asked for unweighted gps when I applied to schools. -- Posted by iamsparta at 12:10 pm on June 25, 2009 Quote: from JennyColada at 12:09 pm on June 25, 2009 I was ONLY asked for unweighted gps when I applied to schools. If you don't mind, what schools did you apply to? -- Posted by newmie66 at 6:06 pm on June 25, 2009 I was only asked for unweighted GPA's. Not every school offers the opportunity to take AP classes so it would be unfair not to look at your unweighted. -- Posted by JennyColada at 12:53 am on June 26, 2009 Quote: from iamsparta at 12:10 pm on June 25, 2009 Quote: from JennyColada at 12:09 pm on June 25, 2009 I was ONLY asked for unweighted gps when I applied to schools.
