Graduation: Early Summer, 2014, no grades "skipped"
As stated below, I AM AN OUT-OF-STATE APPLICANT (from Florida, if that changes anything...)
COURSELOAD AND GPA=======================================
Sophomore and Junior Year GPA:=======
UW GPA: 3.63
Weighted GPA (OOS, assuming pre-IB and honors courses, as they are not UC approved, receive no bonus): 4.17
Weighted GPA (assuming pre-IB/honors courses receive a +0.5 bonus): 4.35
Weighted GPA (assuming pre-IB/honors courses receive a +1.0 bonus): 4.53

3.59
4.14
4.26
4.52
Courseload:::: Fresh 1 AP, 4 Honors/pre-IB, 2 electives////Soph 1 AP (could have taken AP psych, but took a second science honors course instead [Physics Hon and Chem pre-ib]), 1 elective, 5 preib-Honors////Junior All IB/AP courses (including 2 science courses, Bio and Chem) [3 AP, 4 IB]
Academic Trends: UW GPAs-- Fresh: 3.57, Soph: 3.50, Jun: 3.70</p>
<p>Other notable courses: Taking Calc AB junior year, will take "double-math" in senior year--Calc BC and Statistics, replacing my foreign language (AP Latin [I took IB Latin IV in junior year]; Taking double science as a sophmore (physics honors and chemistry pre-ib; second science replaced AP Psychology, potentially increasing or reducing courseload) and for junior/senior years (Chemistry IB and Biology IB--Both had A's Junior year [B's for pre-IB chemistry in sophomore year) (Replaced my elective course in Sophomore year and my "Sixth Subject" (E.g. Comp sci, Philosophy, Psych, etc...) in Junior and Senior Year
CLASS RANK========== 15%
As of sophomore year, 15%; likely to be significantly higher by beginning of senior year due to 3.7 UW GPA in Junior year, while most other grades are going down due to significantly increased workload (IB and AP courses). Also, pre-IB courses tended to hurt my class rank because of their increased difficulty in spite of their same weighting value as honors courses.
