Most colleges work from your unweighted GPA and recalculate based on their formula. Weighted GPA really doesn’t mean anything to them because it varies from school to school. For instance, at our state university they give extra weight for AP classes and no weight for honors classes. If you have taken all honors and APs the honors classes are not reflected in your calculated GPA. Only the APs. I’m not saying that extra rigor doesn’t come in somewhere else but they don’t count it with your GPA. At most high schools honors classes get some extra weight in calculating GPA but not necessarily at college.
