<p>^Proof? Naked assertions might be fact, but without some sort of proof, you’ve failed to present a credible fact. It doesn’t help your cause that you’ve “never heard of a school(undergrad) which gives a GPA boost for A+.” Even if you’re correct that they are uncommon, which I’m not sure is the case among schools that award A+'s in the first place, they do exist and somebody with credible proof that they are rare would likely know of at least one counterexample to the claim. Stanford, for example, counts an A+ as 4.30.</p>
