Do Grad Schools look at my High School GPA?
My GPA in high school was extra crappy and definitely did not reflect how I was as a student. I had no problem getting into college for my undergrad and I was accepted into graduate college with no problems. I think once you get to the graduate level, they only care about the grades and gpa you had at the undergraduate level. good luck!
Why do i have a high IQ (140) and a low GPA (around 2.0)?
Is there any psicologic disorder wich involves this kinds of things? Ps. Well im in college and im 21, i have passed all my tests without studying ( when i aprove), i had to see the counselor several times at highschool due to my grades, and did had many interesting conversations with her, she sent me to take an IQ test and the result was around 140, then she sent me to another test and the result was kind of the same. so thats why im saying that.
How does a student get a high school GPA that is greater than 4.0?
Some high schools calculate (or otherwise weight) GPA resulting from honors, AP, or college classes differently than they do with other classes. The scales are highly variable but often give an A in an AP or college course a value of 4.33 in the GPA calculation.Such weighting may be relevant when it comes to a determination of high school class rank* but carry little importance when it comes to college admissions, especially at highly selective colleges and universities. Many admissions officers will look specifically at the grades earned in specific classes. I know some students who obtained GPAs of "4.0" by earning enough As in AP courses (carrying a 4.33 weight) to offset Bs earned in other courses. It definitely does not look as impressive as an unweighted 4.0 GPA (with the maximum grade points from any individual class capped at 4.0), which is part of the reason many high schools still decline to use a system that awards GPAs higher than 4.0.*Systems that award GPAs higher than 4.0 present unique problems when it comes to class rank. Many high schools will look individually at the curricula of the students with the top-10 GPAs or so, but some simply rank the students from highest to lowest GPA, which can lead to some bizarre outcomes.One of my friends, despite having straight As and having taken more AP courses than anyone else in his high school, was ranked outside of the top five in his high school class. It turns out that he had also taken more classes overall than all of the students ranked in the top five. Since his non-AP classes didn't award grade points over 4.0, the fact that he had taken more classes ultimately "diluted" his GPA, bring it below the GPAs of his peers who had taken proportionally fewer non-APs (but also fewer APs overall). Meanwhile, a college looking at his transcript would immediately see his unweighted 4.0 GPA and know the difference.
What will a low GPA and a high SAT score get me into?
I got a near perfect SAT score with a mediocre high-school GPA, and this happens often. There are many factors in high-school that can distract and be detrimental to your GPA, and universities know this. Universities also know that there isn't a real correlation between GPA and SAT scores, some don't test well, others aren't great in a classroom environment. People are different and universities are understanding of this. I've made it into every university I've applied to, including Clark, Northeastern, Dalhousie(Halifax) and this has been based on SAT scores, AP tests and other extra-curricular things rather than my High-School GPA. You'll do fine. Don't worry, you won't be under any suspicion. A high SAT score can really make up for an average GPA and vice-versa. Furthermore, honors classes look great to a university. There are also many other factors that a reviewed for acceptance, so I wouldn't stress it. The exact GPA you need depends on the university you wish to go to, but you'll be able to get into many. If you don't make it into the university you want, go to a second choice or a community college do well and then transfer after a semester or two. When you transfer, the GPA that the school that you are transfering to will see is the GPA earned at your present college. A high SAT score means alot. You still have a year to get an even higher graduation GPA. Honors and AP classes are weighted well and there are many ways to get your GPA up post-graduation, so don't worry. You might have to do some extra work, but you'll be able to do what you want.
