has anyone had any experience with schools using weighted GPA's to qualify potential students? .... Parents shouldn’t discount the value of being an athlete as a qualifier or enrollment.

There isn't a standard prodecure for weighting grades. A 4.5 at one high school could be better than a 4.8 at another. My daughter was asked her unweighted GPA and then what level courses she took.

I was surprised when a friend told me his son was accepted into a major D1 academic university with a 3.5 taking only academic courses (no honors or AP classes). He did have a reasonably high PG ranking.
