    the highest gpa you can truly get is a 4.0 this is the school district using an inflated gpa or a weighted gpa to say a 6.5

      right, it is probably weighted, but she took a lot of APs to get it that high. All congrats to harvard acceptance, that is a worldly achievement! 👏👏

    For those wondering CCSD is on a 5.0 scale (100 = 5.0, 92 = 4.2, 88 = 3.8 etc) from there AP classes are a 1.0 curve with honors being a 0.5 curve. The bonus is likely a teacher allowing extra credit above 5.0 base in transcript or some pass-fail magic I’ve not seen quite yet.
    That’s what is tradition tho, unsure if basic is same

      Because there is no such thing as 6.5 . . . Even with ap classes anything extra goes towards college cred . . Her transcripts aren't going to say 6.5 when the highest possible is 5.5 .

      It depends on how many weighted classes (IB + AP) are offered - unfortunately, some schools offer more than others. It also depends on when you can take them. So, max GPAs vary from school to school

      Three different scoring systems: IB Diploma Programme is scored 1-7. AP is usually on a 5.0 system. Unweighted normal GPA is 4.0/4.33 max.
      The IB-to-unweighted equivalent is 7=A+=4.33, 6=A=4.0, below that is B or

    How this student got a 6.5 GPA? All the high schools in Las Vegas and around the country the GPA is 4.0. What is this a *&^shit. The school district is so bad that need to enhance a student with the highest GPA. Fights at the schools, a teacher was attacked, no teachers and now highest GPA of 6.5. Give my a break. It was a 4.0 and headed to Harvard University then was believable other wised no. Any High school student can go to Harvard with 4.0 GPA.
