Frequently Asked Questions

Unweighted uses a 4.0 scale for all classes. Weighted adds bonus points for harder classes: +0.5 for Honors, +1.0 for AP/IB.
Do all schools use the same weighting?
No, weighting systems vary. Some use +0.5/+1.0, others use different values. Check your school's specific policy.
Which GPA do colleges look at?
Many colleges recalculate GPA using their own standards. They consider both weighted and unweighted, plus course rigor.
Can weighted GPA be above 4.0?
Yes, with AP/IB courses, weighted GPA can exceed 4.0. The maximum depends on how many advanced courses you take.
