@jhpsu I think that’s what a lot of people don’t understand. Our local public school district weighs out of a 6.0 GPA. So if a student gets a gpa of 4.0 at that school, it’s actually a terrible gpa. I do believe that Penn State only considers unweighted gpa because of this. At my sons private school, the highest gpa attainable, and that’s if you have perfect scores in all of your AP classes, is a 4.3. So it’s incredibly different than our public school. It really is hard to chance students because of this.
