Can any one tell me what this means?

<p>can any one elaborate this question,I have got it from one college application.</p>

<p>"What, in particular, influences your desire to attend our College?"</p>

<p>I may be wrong, but that sounds exactly like a “Why this school?” question to me.</p>

<p>I taught so , txs</p>

<p>what is the difference b/n weighted and Unweighted rank?</p>

<p>Weighted is with Honors credits counting for extra points
E.g. an A with weighted in an Honors/AP/IB class would be 5 points not 4
Unweighted is without the weights. Everything equal</p>

<p>so unweighted is better than weighted?</p>

<p>Not necessarily; when going by unweighted rank, taking anything but the easiest classes puts you at a disadvantage.</p>

<p>we don’t have such thing in my country.we take ordinary classes and the school gives rank and average.so in my college application ,what should I mark on weighted or unweighted ?</p>

<p>Unweighted</p>

<p>thank u very much.</p>
