<p>Thanks, bluebayou, for the update.</p>
<p>One of many things Jay says is this:</p>
<p>"At the very least, the UC undergraduate admissions system will have to rethink its 22-year-old policy of adding a full grade point, making every A worth 5 points rather than just 4, to any grade in any course labeled college-level or honors, even if no college-level exam is given to verify its rigor. "</p>
<p>Our high school does NOT award any weight for an AP course UNLESS the AP exam is taken. I assumed every school in the country (of the ones that weight) did this. I may be wrong. But it certainly seems wrong of the UC admissions system to add a point if the exam wasn't taken.</p>
