***Rigorous GPA System (90%-94%=A-, 95-100%=A, and AP Weighting is +.5/ Honors is +.25) *Here’s the bad news: My school is changing the system to make it easier starting my junior year and the new system won’t be retroactive. I’m afraid this is going to artificially boost my GPA and discourage adcoms… (New System: A=93%-100%, AP Weighting is +1/ Honors is +.5).

Rigorous my ass. I come from Fairfax County where 94-100 is an A and 90-94 is a B+. We get .5 for APs and 0 for honors.
