Probably a dumb question but...

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>When we talk about GPA on CC what scale should be use for uniformity? I assume everyone here tries to talk about it in the same manner. Or do we even have a standard scale? What do colleges typically use for applicants?</p>

2

<p>Colleges almost always use a 4.0 scale. :)</p>

3

<p>I realize for their students... but what about applicants?</p>

4

<p>For applicants too. They use an unweighted 4.0 scale without regard to +'s and -'s.</p>

5

<p>So is a 90+ a 4.0?</p>

<p>But when I do a chance thing or whatever, how should I do weighted... my local scale?</p>

6

<p>Yup.
100-90=4
89-80=3
79-70=2
69-60=1
59-0=0</p>

<p>That's easy... unweighted </p>

<p>Me ----> 4.0</p>

<p>But what about weighted?</p>
