    GPA in high school really isn’t about how smart you are it’s sorta like how much effort you put in to your education

    • @mubashshirifrad1728
      @mubashshirifrad1728 2 ปีที่แล้ว +555

      while that is true for the american education system, it's not true for the british education system. If we take 2 students who have the same subjects, the one with the higher GPA will most likely be smarter. (Given that they did not opt for predicted grades due to COVID)

      @@mubashshirifrad1728 there is so much room for stastical error there, lad. Life outside of school has a massive effect on GPA. Depression and tragedy are not to be fucked with and they can lower your GPA for a few months, even years. GPA absolutely shows who is working the hardest rather than who is the most 'intelligent'. Which isn't necessarily terrible in an academic setting (although it's not healthy for young minds).
      Also, our understanding of how learning and intelligence works is shite, so no one can actually say what you've said for definite.

      @chop9293 2 ปีที่แล้ว +190

      totally right although not always the case because some students may not put that much effort into their school work but still end up at the top. Probably because they have better at retaining what they have learned or because they can comprehend what is being taught faster (esp at the elementary level) although that may not always mean they are smarter than the others

    The GPA is a symbol of dedication, not necessary “smartness” level. I graduated last spring with a 4.0. While it sounds impressive to some, to me the GPA was all I felt validated by. I didn’t have any friends, I put everything into school. I definitely don’t consider myself massively intelligent, but I am motivated. And the people with the most motivation get the farthest in life. They can take negative experiences and make something beautiful out of it. Intelligence only goes so far without motivation.

Not as high as I wanted at first). Involved in extracurricular activities and AP/dual credit classes which got me some scholarships for university. Ended up going to the university in my town that has a huge acceptance rate (like 90), very affordable school, and a great nursing program. Got early acceptance to nursing school and will graduate debt free with a 3.6 GPA. I’m a commuter student too, which many people kind of looked down on. People used to ask me why I didn’t aim higher and choose the “college experience” somewhere more competitive. Sometimes it’s not all about that. As a first generation student, I just thrived off academic validation. I had a great high school experience, but just because I’m book smart doesn’t mean I’m smart! The education system is designed in a way that many people may not thrive in. People also have hard life experiences or responsibilities going on outside of school. At the end of the day, this stuff is kind of arbitrary. It was important to me at the time, but it’s not everything! There’s more important stuff. Plus my school district doesn’t have the greatest point system. My school had like 14 valedictorians my year and like 5 salutatorians just because they went off gpa. That’s when I realized it’s all kind of meaningless 😂 ooh also my friend is insanely smart. She got a 96 on the ASVAB and a 34 on the ACT. She dropped out of college because lectures are hard for her. Doesn’t mean anything bad!

      @@imawakemymindisalive13 i took all the ap classes available at my high school and graduated as the valedictorian. i fully understand how different classes can affect someone's gpa. the difference between you and me is that i don't attach 100% of my self-worth to my gpa (judging by your comment history), so i'm competent enough to realize that gpas aren't as straightforward as people paint them out to be. there's a lot of nuance that you won't see if you aren't doing any critical thinking.

      ​@@Mateo-yk9xq I think it depends on what you mean by fail. Complete failure, sure that's true what you say. But there are a lot of middle-of-the-pack students who end up becoming very successful (i.e., high wages, high status). And that's because a high GPA is not the best indicator of success, even though many people with high GPAs are successful. There is even some evidence (academic research) that putting too much emphasis on grades and traditional schooling is detrimental to future success. We can see that clearly with creatives and many entrepreneurial types, where being too conformist is actually a detriment to success in those areas.

  • @aunghtetkhantpaing810

    They didn't specify if it was unweighted or weighted. Weighed cap at 5 I believe and unweighted at 4. Unweighted count the weight of the grades you get in AP and regular classes to be the same.

    • @swissgoat4981
      @swissgoat4981 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      This was 100% weighted at least for the AP classes. My school did grades on the percentage scale so AP classes added 10% to your grade (an 85 becomes a 95) but when the same class got put on my college transcript as they were through a dual enrollment program it was the actual unweighted grade. So my high school GPA was boosted by them but my college GPA was actually lowered

    • @makenainghram9062
      @makenainghram9062 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This was weighted for them all, but I don’t think that it was checked if their schools all ranked the same… the one person said that a bunch of people at their school have 5.0s. That’s pretty much impossible considering that you have to take PE and all sorts of other classes and there’s only a limited amount of AP/honors courses… Some schools rank out of a 5.5 or that to boost their students GPAs more or put AP classes as higher than honors

  • @arianahabib1101

I went to the technical center for Mechatronics, though, and ended up getting a public school student of the year award and was the top of my class. They made a glitch in the Highschool I was districted for and put me on the graduation roster (I didn’t go to the school and wasn’t a public school student)- I had found out at midnight the day before. The next day I walked the graduation stage without a diploma or a GED. I also passed the Highschool requirement test in 9th grade and started taking college courses in 10th grade. I’d consider myself very average intelligence. School does not tell you how smart you are, trust me.
