Attended the GF's high school awards ceremony the other day. Had a question.
They lined up their top 10 GPA students for recognition. They were all possessing GPA's in the 105+ range. I was surprised. I was never a gifted student, so it was a new concept to me to see grades above 100.
The GF was not in the top 10. She was a VERY gifted student, so I jokingly asked why she wasn't up there with the others. She informed me that they were all heavily invested in AP classes all day, and because they were weighted, they got higher grades. Because she went to BOCES in the afternoon, she had lower grades.
She attends AP classes in the morning. Gets 90's and up in all the classes. Sweet! Goes to BOCES in the afternoon to work on her aircraft mechanic certifications. Gets a 100, and is top student. AWESOME! Problem is, her GPA was above 100 because of her AP classes (somehow 90's = 100 +) And because she got a 100 in BOCES, which was less than her GPA, her GPA went down.
How can someone be punished for getting 100? She was top of her class!
I'm a little lost.
