Is a 3.5 gpa?

Would you consider a 3.5 gpa/4.0 pretty good, or on the average side? I also take all honor classes, besides in english, and spanish (spanish 1) And am a freshmen in high school.

Edit:Well am talking about underweighted gpa, am not sure about weighted gpa, because am not sure how much classes such as bsic, world geopraphy, bible are worth out of a 5.0.

But I would say my gpa would be a 3.8-4.2 underweighted

a 3.5 and a 27 on my ACT got me a $4000 a year scholarship to a pretty legit engeneering school so yeah its pretty good

I would definately suggest always taking at least a few honors classes just to give your GPA a little boost, especially honors english

Hey did you know the Pope is a catholic?!

Well, if your taking honor classes then you should have a higher gpa than 4.0 though. So I say you're average.

Its good for earning scholarships. But when it comes to college they don't really care what your GPA is besides getting into the school. Once you get in they don't care what you took in high school as its not to their standards.

It's decent if you're in all honors. Nothing really special though for a freshmen. Try to get it up to like a 3.7ish, I'm sure you can do that. :D

Is a 4.4 GPA good? I has AP classes.

No problem! On average the other people in all of my AP/Honors classes have an unweighted gpa of 3.7-3.8, and that's why I suggested it. My weighted gpa is about a 4.57, but that's not really the point here. Unweighted, my cumulative (junior) is a 3.97 I do believe.

My sister has a 4.5GPA on the 5.0 scale. Shes also among "Who's Who", top 5,000 high school kids in the country with all advance placement courses!Vadamee

Good for her but what about YOU?

[QUOTE="rawsavon"]IMO (since you asked) average at best. -doesn't matter if you are talking about college or HSUCF_Knight

Cool, thats very impressive. :D

It is ok for an unweighted GPA, but it isn't too impressive for a freshman. But unweighted GPAs can be deceiving. Unless your unweighted GPA is really low, then your weighted GPA is much more important. I would try working that out. If a class isn't listed as honors, then you don't get an extra quality point for it.

If you have an unweighted GPA of 3.5, you probably have mostly A's and B's, which is pretty good. Your weighted GPA would probably be in the upper 3's or lower 4's, which is pretty good. Assuming you do well on the SAT/ACT and keep it up through high school, you can get into most colleges. If you want to get into the above average ones though, you should have your GPA in the 4's. For top colleges, upper 4's or 5's.

And just to brag, I (junior) have a 4.0 unweighted and a 4.75 weighted :D

Good for her but what about YOU?

I don't know if it's been said but extra activities are essential too. People who have a 3,5 GPA and have extra stuff like sports, math club, glee club and etc are more sought after.

I think it's above average. It will get you into most colleges. Do you do any activities in school? That might help. Also, if you're a minority. :P

Depends if you're Asian or not.
