I would say college gpas are often less fair. At least in high school you know that all ap courses are about the same. Also I would say the top 5% at any high school are close to the same, so the grade curves can map up somewhat. However, colleges dont map up at all in terms of the quality of students or in the amount of work they require, not to mention ccs.

Colleges grades are used as the real indicator, not because the comparision is any fairer, but because, presumily, you are doing harder work. The work is closer to what you would do when transferring.
