4.25? I didn’t know you could do better than 4.0 so I guess this is new. Kind of like those Spinal Tap amplifiers that go up to 11, I guess.
No, not new. For regular courses, an A is a 4.0, but if you take an Advanced Placement course, an A is a 5. So if he took a bunch of AP courses and got B's and A's, his GPA would work out above 4.
