<li><p>My school uses a GPA scale of 4.33, but that is not one of the options for GPA scale on the common app. What should I do?</p></li>

<li>^the answer isn’t actually that obvious- Commended and semifinalist are designated as state/regional honors. Only Finalist and Scholar count as national honors.</li>
