But these GPA ranges with 7.0's don't really affect GPA for getting into university. The local state university's system for creating GPA had a very clearly defined set of classes that get +1 points. Our state college system takes the classes you take and calculate it's OWN GPA. School look at your GPA system and compare it to other schools GPA system.
I was assuming as much. Even if your HS has a 7.0 scale, most colleges calculate an unweighted and a 5.0, and maybe one unweighted that takes out classes like PE. The problem arises when kids don't understand that and try to torture themselves into a crazy schedule and drop classes like art or music or whatever for that elusive 6.2 GPA....and then realize that 6.2 isn't worth the paper it's printed on -- or worse, it's worth a meager *3.75*.
