01
Target the final
Before you guess what you need on the exam, use the published weights and current scores. The output is a concrete score target, not a vague hope.

Weight the transcript
Honors, AP, and IB bump GPA on many scales. Convert course difficulty into a weighted GPA so applications and scholarships see the same number you do.

Pressure-test college cost

Gotchas before you set targets
Short warnings with a calculator handoff.
Syllabus weights beat averages
Averaging midterms and finals equally is wrong if the syllabus says otherwise. Enter the published weights or the target score is fiction.
Final grade →Weighted and unweighted both matter
Some schools report both. A weighted GPA can look strong while the unweighted view is middling. Know which number each application asks for.
Weighted GPA →ROI is assumption-sensitive
Small changes in grants, interest, or starting salary swing payback years. Run a range, not a single rosy salary.
College ROI →GPA scales differ by school
A 5.0 or 100-point scale does not map cleanly to every admissions portal. Convert with the scale your school publishes.
