Weighted grades.

<p>This may sound like such a stupid question, but if anyone knows the answer thank you. If you've taken AP and Honors courses in High School, and you were filling out the application, would you put the weighted or unweighted High School GPA on there?</p>

<p>Thank you for the answer.</p>

<p>Edit: This is all in-state with this question and everything heh.</p>

<p>doesn’t really matter…</p>

<p>your counselor will send your grades, class rank, gpa, etc. …so they’ll go by that…</p>

<p>edit: i’d probably put the unweighted though since schools have a lot of different weighting systems…</p>

<p>absolutely put your weighted grades on there. you didn’t take AP classes just for a challenge, did you? UNC goes off of your class rank, number of others taking AP classes, etcetera, so they’ll be able to figure out what they need to.</p>

<p>long story short, weighted GPA because it’s a bigger, more impressive number.</p>

<p>but what if you have a 4.0uw, and you are ranked 1 unweighted, and you have a 5.3w and are only ranked 15/330. would it be worth it to send in unweighted because it would come with being ranked first?</p>

<p>I think your school would send both, ask them :)</p>

<p>Honestly GPA doesn’t matter. Colleges look at the individual classes and the grades assign to those. Also UW GPA is usually more looked at than weighted (why? because each school weighs their GPA differently)</p>

<p>I think that weighted GPA is important for instaters. UNC Publishes the average weighted GPA in the class profile and I’m pretty sure it was like 4.16 this past year…</p>
