<p>I just double-checked and mine is actually 98.48% which makes me feel a little better :)</p>
<p>And another thing my school doesn't use is class rank, so the best I can estimate is top 10% out of 416 students. And based on what Nick 017 said, that doesn't help me much.</p>
<p>My school calculates GPA weirdly. And apparently I'm 2nd in my class. Of 120. -_-</p>
<p>As of this semester I'm probably in the top 10 poeple out of 100.. Before, I was only in the top 30 out of 100.</p>
<p>Freshman year (easy public school) - 1st sem: one B+, 2nd sem: all A's
I had a 3.9 average this year.</p>
<p>Soph year (moved to tough,competitive, private school on trimesters)
1st,3rd tri: 2 B's, 1 B+, 4 A's. 2nd: 1 B, 2 B+'s, 4 A's.
My school calculates GPA weirdly (A is 4.33, A- is 4.0, B+ is 3.66, etc.), but i had a 4.0 average that year.</p>
<p>Junior year
1st: 2 B+s, 5 A's. 2nd: 2 A-'s, 5 A's. 3rd: All A's
I had a 4.5 average this year, once again with that weird GPA thing.</p>
<p>Do you think my GPA is crappy (esp. sophomore year)</p>
<p>rofl^ Same here. </p>
<p>Algebra 2. Lowered my class rank by itself to 33/550.</p>
<p>cuz we rank using unweighted.</p>
<p>I've only gotten 1 B+ ever!!!
and my school doesnt rank!!!
but guess what!! My school doesnt weight but hands out A+'s...
so that makes my GPA: 4.17/4.5</p>
<p>(i dont even know if thats a good gpa or not!?!?)</p>
<p>4.56/4.00 weighted ftw!
except one B+ so leaves 3.97/4.00 unweighted :(</p>
<p>Yeah, show some love for the 3.97s!</p>
<p>3.97 fighting!</p>
<p>@eating food: yeah i feel so intimidated when i see chance threads of people who are like top 5 students, not %, in their class. and then they complain that they're not valedictorian.
i'm 43rd and it just looks so much sadder.</p>
<p>and our school doesnt weigh honors classes, which would have helped my rank so much more because our rank is weighted GPA and i've taken honors for everything.</p>
<p>These last few posts have NOT been bad GPAs.</p>
<p>This is ridiculous. I had a 3.7 weighted freshman year.</p>
<p>^^ I agree. </p>
<p>I already set the standard...let's be fair and not have any drama queens on this thread.</p>
<p>The provincial department of education is making schools stop rankings. We don't even get percentiles. It kind of sucks for me because I'm quite certain I'd be 1/5xx, but on applications it goes down as school does not report rank ;_;</p>
<p>edit: not that it matters. The school used to only rank Grade 12's in their second semester (which begins in February) so I wouldn't have been ranked until my applications were already in.</p>
<p>/raises hand</p>
<p>Woot for sup-par GPAs! </p>
<p>My UW is about a 3.6, but if I toss out freshman year, it shoots up to a ~ 3.9. I'm fortunately still ranked 4/400, but it's only because I've never taken a non-honors/AP course and have taken extra courses each year, so my weighted is quite good. Hopefully freshman year doesn't come back to bite me too badly.</p>
<p>how does 94/100 at a somewhat competitive magnet school sound?</p>
<p>taking the most rigorous courseload (i've taken all but one of the APs that my school offers, and i still plan to take that AP, not like that really matters tho) and such; </p>
<p>valedic's gpa is a 96/100. historical average valedicotrian gpa is 97.3 tho (except most valedictorian's didn't have the highest rigor).</p>
<p>Come on now, this has become a chances thread for GPAs. :/</p>
