<p>My school doesn't give out GPA like a normal institution; no, we have RANGES for pre-determined GPAs. Here's the breakdown:</p>
<p>97 - 100: 4.0
93 - 96: 3.7
90 - 92: 3.4
87 - 89: 3.1
83 - 86: 2.8</p>
<p>And so on...</p>
<p>My problem is that my UW GPA is in the low 96's. This means that I still have a 3.7, which is a 92 in most schools...</p>
<p>Furthermore, I have a downward trend in grades from a 97+ UW in 9th, 96 in 10th, and 95 this year. </p>
<p>So what matters more? My rank throughout HS(1) or the UW GPA/downward trend?</p>
