So I read through some school website and also here, but still couldn't find my answer, please someone help me out.
For UC, AP classes are capped at 8 semesters. My daughter's school requires a total of 220 credits (or 44 semester classes) to graduate, so she need to take 6 classes per semester. The total semester classes for 10th and 11th grades will be 24. Assume that all classes are counted, and she has 8 semesters of AP classes. If she has all A's, her maximum capped weighted GPA will only be at 4.33. But I saw people having upward to 4.75. How is that possible? In fact, in order to increase the GPA, she needs to reduce the number of total classes, but that means less rigorous coursework. ???
