What's a good GPA?

Just show the general trend in the “strength of your schedule”, always try to get more or equal AP classes each following year. Make sure your B’s aren’t in the impacted courses (math or science-related). All in all, I think you can be safe with a sliding scale, maybe something like 4.0 UW, 4.2 W or 3.8 UW, 4.5 W. If you get the low unweighted gpa, just have the hard courses to back it up, hence a low unweighted gpa can be compensated by a higher weighted gpa. I’m actually in your category right now, but I’m a senior.
