I believe that UMD does its own “weighting”, because schools vary so much on how they do weighting. My kids’ high school was similar to chelsea, AP A=6 points, Honors A=5 points, “regular” class A=4. Obviously it would not be the same to look at a student’s weighted AP score from this compared to a school that only awards 1 point to AP courses. They “level the playing field” when looking at grades, not just simply what the number is, coming in from your h.s.
