Every high school has it’s own system. Some colleges will recalculate on their own system so as to compare apples-to-apples among the many different high school methods of weighting.

You may find weighting info for your specific high school in your student handbook or on your high school’s web page.

FWIW, our high school doesn’t weigh all DE classes, only the few it considers suitably difficult (MVC and a couple of the highest level PLTW classes). It is still kind of a bargain because it does show some rigor AND you don’t need to pay $90 & sit for an AP exam… pass the class and you’ve earned college credit. Whether or not those credits transfer to your college of choice depends on the college, of course, but our in-state colleges are bound to accept them from high schools in-state.
