Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do colleges use weighted or unweighted GPA?

Most colleges look at both, but unweighted GPA (4.0 scale) is the standard for comparison. Weighted GPA shows academic rigor — a 3.7 weighted with many APs is stronger than a 3.9 unweighted all regular classes.
