🕐 unweighted gpa
grades are measured on a 4.0 scale:
A = 4.0
B = 3.0
C = 2.0
D = 1.0
F = 0
the difficulty of the course doesn’t matter
for example:
Getting an A in a standard class and an A in an advanced class both count as 4.0.

🕐weighted GPA
weighted GPA takes course difficulty into account. advanced classes may receive extra points.
for example:
it doesn’t mean that you have to take up all AP classes you can
A in a regular course = 4.0
A in Honors course = 4.5
A in AP course = 5.0
admissions want your AP’s to be connected to your major
