<p>@Raddd - college adcoms are very aware of most HS’s curriculum, especially the ones that consistently send students there. Many HS include their school profile with each student’s transcript, so when adcoms are looking at a transcript they know exactly what they are looking at and how to compare it with other transcripts. More proactive HS would even have their college counselors meet with adcoms regularly to go over the school’s curriculum. At top colleges they want students to get good grades taking the most rigorous courses.</p>
