<p>( I posted this earlier about GW, sorry for the repeat)
Hello! I am an incoming senior at a nationally ranked high school in Lower Merion School District. I was wondering if someone could chance me for American.</p>
<p>Florida- Freshman and Sophomore years- All pre-IB classes in Florida, mostly A's and a few B's.
Pennsylvania- Junior and Senior years- All IB courses (Diploma Programme) Grades here are more towards B's and B+ due to a very different grading scale i.e. a 90 is a B+ and a 92 is an A.
GPA: 4.64 Unweighted on a 5.0 scale. Weighted is quite inflated due to IB and AP courses.
One AP class- European History- Score of 4</p>
<p>SAT- 1720
