What is the difference between an unweighted and a weighted Grade Point Average (GPA)?
An unweighted GPA is based on a scale of 4.0 with a grade of “A” having an assigned value of 4 points. A weighted GPA is based on a scale of greater than 4.0 and typically is awarded for courses in advanced placement, dual enrollment courses, and honors. Each Florida county school district defines its own weighted scale. Bright Futures uses a state defined weighted scale that may differ from individual county scales.
