<p>When colleges are looking at GPAs/class rank, are they mainly looking at the weighted or the unweighted? I ask because, when looking at my class rankings, my unweighted ranking is FAR worse than my weighted ranking, and I feel like colleges look more at your unweighted GPA/class rank.</p>
<p>I think they look at the classes you took and the grades you received in them. GPAs can really vary based on how a particular school chooses to weigh honors and AP classes. Try not to get too caught up in the numbers game…remember your transcript is a list of your classes and grades earned, not just a number out of 4 or 5.</p>
