Honors and ap classes...do they really help?

<p>Does anyone know how much of a grade boost</p>

<p>LMU
TCU
USF
or
University of Arizona </p>

<p>gives for AP and Honors classes</p>

<p>I suppose you’re asking two specific questions:</p>

<p>1) do these schools adjust your GPA to their own version of “weighted”, or
2) do these schools review your actual transcript, note the difficulty of course work, and convert your GPA + course rigor into an “academic” score used in their admissions formula alongside test scores, ECs, and environmental factors.</p>

<p>I’m sorry I cannot answer either for the four universities you list. I can say that there probably aren’t any Top 60 or so schools that do not review the applicant’s actual transcript line by line.</p>
