Not if you want to get into a top tier university

I know people who went to Yale with a 3.5 and 1560's on their SATs, High school GPA's don't mean d!ck.

And I can counter with a friend who got 1320s and a 4.0 and goes to Duke. What's your point

5/81 who graduated, I don't actually remember my gpa, but it was unweighted, with weighting I probably would have been higher, but not first, and I didn't really care at all. I was actually somewhat lazy. which hurt me a lot in college

If I remember right it was 81 / 250ish. Mediocre grades were just because I was lazy about homework and such though, I got 2nd highest on the SATs

My high school didn't keep track of ranks...the sheer number of 4.0 GPAs in my 700+ student class precluded such a possibility. I had a 3.81 though four years of HS, so I was probably somewhere in the top 25%.

My school officially said that they didn't do ranks, but if you ask the counselors they'd give it to you. The top 25% of my school had 4.0+ GPA. I think I had a 4.78 by the end of senior year .

That GPA is bullshiz. I took 23 AP classes and they didn't inflate my GPA. On other scales like the one at your school, I would have had well over a 5.XX GPA.

woah, 23 AP classes. I'm on a track for like 18 or 19... people take like 26 plus carry like 8 honors from middle school=crazy high gpa (6.xx)
