To all my flist-ers who are currently High School students....
Please fill this out. IB math project, don't want to fake more data than I have to, love you all lots and lots, confidential, participants reduced to mere statistics, blah blah blah.
ALSO: PLEASE PIMP THIS. I WANT AS MUCH DATA AS POSSIBLE.

*To calculate GPA: Find the average point value. I'm using the American system because I am ethnocentric or something. And that's just way easier. An 'A' (90-100) is worth 4 points. A 'B' (80-89) is worth 3. A 'C' (70-79) is worth 2. A 'D' (60-69) is worth 2. Anything less is 1.
**Weighted GPAs take into account extra points for IB/AP classes (An 'A' is worth 5 and so on). Basically, anything that is worth more in your system gets upped one point.
EXAMPLE:
My un-weighted GPA from last semester: (B + A + A + C + A + B + A)/7 = (3 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 4)/7 = 3.42
My weighted GPA from last semester: (B + A + A + C + A + B + A)/7 = (4 + 5 + 5 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 4)/7 = 4.28
If this is just too big of a pain the ass to all you guys not from the US, you have my full permission to run away. That's what I'd do. ;)
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE AND BABIES.
