<p>Um... wow 0%</p>
<p>yeah very few... i think like maybe 3-4% at most have about a 4.0 weighted...</p>
<p>11 kids outta 600 have all A's.
I got one B an i am ranked uw gpa 12/600. :(</p>
<p>Ok so my grade alone has like 700 people, and it is kind of strange the way in which it breaks down.
About 550 of the kids take just general classes, which are extremely EASY. I'm in one of them, which is Economics (required for graduation and no advanced level), and I've slept throughout the class/watched videos on my iPhone and aced both exams (and i use that term loosely). So obviously, alot of people have A's when taking classes like that.</p>
<p>But then theres the 150 or so kids who take all AP's /Honors. My school is real competitive/populated so it's uncommon to have the same people in all your AP classes, unlike smaller schools where it's just the same 30 people in AP classes.
Out of those 150, VERY FEW get straight A's. My school is known for having the most AP classes offered on LI/NY, so most of us have like 6 AP's on our schedule.
and if you guys know AP teachers, they think the world revolves around their class so they assign like 3 hours of homework per night.
In that case, it makes it impossible to maintain straight A's. But there are the select few who manage it.</p>
<p>Wow, it's slightly annoying how inflated grades are at some schools...jk :D</p>
<p>The senior class this year has two 4.0 UW out of 470 students currently, and one of them is probably going to get a B this year....</p>
<p>plenty...but everyone with over a 4.0 weighted gpa is ranked 1st in the class :) yay
plus we don't have a valedictorian. they eliminated it cause they wanted to promote 'class unity' which my class has absolutely none of.</p>
<p>My class has three students with unweighted 4.0 GPAs, with a class size of 50. There is no weighting, as there are no AP or honors courses. There are also about four more students with a 3.9 or above. I have a friend with a 3.72 GPA, and he's ranked #14 in the class. That puts him below the top quartile. Grade inflation is a big problem. This is for a small rural public.</p>
<p>I have a 3.9 UW GPA (includes freshmen year) and am rank 22 out of 574. As far as I know, only one person has a 4.0 UW GPA. Though, I hear she's doing poorly in Calculus this year. I don't think my class is going to have a valedictorian.</p>
<p>Last year, and the year before that, there were 2 valedictorians. The class of 2005 had the most number of 4.0s12 people.</p>
<p>I have a 3.79uw by my school's weird scale, which comes out to either val or sal. A 4.0 is literally impossible and nobody has gotten it in the years I've been here. That being said, my recalculated gpa is a 3.96, which would be 3/280. This is a competitive suburban high school that usually sends anywhere between 6-12 to ivies.</p>
<p>Almost everybody; in my school, even though we are hypercompetitive but send nobody to top-30 schools, a good third of our students have between GPAs between 87 and 100. We don't go by the four-point ranking system, which is probably a good thing, or we would have at least twenty 4.0 students in a 179-student environment.</p>
<p>Mind you, very few of them take honors classes. Our top ten is, thankfully, comprised 90% of honors kids. One has never taken a difficult class in her life. Everybody under there are standard-levels. And then you have the rest of the honors kids somewhere between 25 and 80. It's pretty absurd how high-scoring my class tends to be, given that here, one is either incredibly bright or incredibly lazy with about thirty students in between.</p>
<p>A's are cake to get in my school.... there is about 90 people per a grade and its SO easy its ridiculous. My average last year was a 98 with all honors. But the thing is that ap's and honors are only weighted 1.03. so weighted and unweighted averages at the end of hs are pretty much the same.</p>
<p>My hs is very average (as in, not in top 100 out of 300some schools in NJ), 2000 kids total with chronically jam-packed hallways. Classes are weighted with levels: lvl 1 is honors/AP, lvl 2 is normal (aka easy). The levels go all the way down to 5. Yeah, I regularly get surprised by the <em>ahem</em> stupidity of some of my classmates. </p>
<p>My momm actually considered sending me to a competitive high school instead within 10 miles, but reasoned that being in the top of a more mediocre school than middle-of-the-pack in an overcompetitive school full of overachievers.</p>
<p>About 50-80 out of 500 kids went to the county community college last year. Amazingly, we did get one student that went on to Princeton, and another to Cornell (those really surprised me). </p>
<p>I just regret the school having bad class scheduling choices... The crackhead I got instead of my guidance counseler to 'help' me the summer before 9th grade tried to keep me out of any honors classes! As a result I'm a year behind on math and science compared to other honors/competitive kids. And this year I had to go with a 3rd choice AP World History instead of Physics or Psychology because they wouldn't fit in my schedule... :[</p>
<p>My school has pretty bad grade inflation because we have so many honors and bs IB courses that kids take to get easy 90+ with the 10 points added weight.</p>
<p>DD public urban hs-552 in the class-5 had 4.0 UW GPA-all 5 took heavy courseload-honors & AP's--it got down to who took the most classes during summer at local CC and/or State University AND still got A's-note---DD was Val-and she was involved in Theatre and Dance (6 shows a year) which anyone who has been involved in Theatre or Sports knows the extra time commitment to those ventures.</p>
<p>my school is super easy if you take normal classes but if you take APs it is way more competitive and difficult.
i have a 3.96 unweighted and I am 39th out of 500 or something
but like i have a 4.16 and based off of that I am 15th out of 500.
so it is kinda a huge difference between kids who take APs and those who dont</p>
<p>My school is pretty stingy with grades. I have a 3.85 UW and a 4.19 W and am probably in the top 30 of 700 kids. Our valed doesnt have a 4.00 UW.</p>
<p>haha i did pretty amazing frosh and soph years...</p>
<p>then comes junior year.</p>
<p>they all say junior yr can make or break you.</p>
<p>guess which one got ME????</p>
<p>it torn me apart! yikes i feel stupid</p>
<p>Roughly 5% (that equates to 15 out of 300) of people in a given graduating class at my school have a 4.0 unweighted.</p>
<p>There is probably one 4.0 in my entire graduating class and that person doesn't take the hardest courseload.</p>
<p>around 40% for math
around 30% for physics
around 15% for chem
<5% for economics
around 5% for english
and >70 is A in my sch</p>
