Dave some schools use a 5.0 scale for some reason. Also some schools have different standards for A and B etc, my school even dropped the GPA and went to percentages because most of the area schools did A from 90-100 and ours did 93-100 etc
OK, I see. Our school had weighed classes where an A was worth 5 points on the 4.0 scale, and that's how kids got above 4.00 averages, but you couldn't take 100% weoghed classes, so nobody was a 5.0 GPA.
With lots of tough weighted classes many kids got over 4.25gpa...some MUCH higher, and they DID skip lunch and take extra classes in place of gym.
They finished #1 in the class and end up at Harvard and MIT, etc....future rocket scientists or cancer cure doctors (I hope).
