<p>i know people use UW - GPA on a 4.0 scale, but is W-GPA on a 5.0, where honors are +.5 and AP's are +1? Thanks</p>
<p>You should self report your grades the same way your transcript will show them. Use the same scale your school uses for weighted grades.</p>
<p>My school is UW 4.0 scale. For W-GPA, honors and APs are both +1. My counselor said it’s still a 4.0 scale, but I’m not sure I trust him…</p>
<p>yeah i know i’m just talking about on this site - when people say my uw gpa is X and my w gpa is Y, what are the scales they use for the weighted gpa?</p>
<p>They are using whatever scale they want. There is no standard so weighted GPA postings are largely useless. My W GPA is a 4.9 for example.</p>
<p>The scale is different from HS to HS. Don’t try to weight your own grades if your school does not do it.</p>
