Title: 2014 football recruits
Post by: Ken711 on August 04, 2013, 12:01:07 PM
The first 2014 Cornell football recruit commitment that I have seen so far.  Nice to see we beat out other Ivy offers from Columbia, Harvard, Penn and Yale.

He'll probably be able to do the work. I wonder what school he applied to.

My wife had one of those stupid "greater than the logical maximum" GPAs in HS.  Some schools weight AP classes so it's possible to be > 100%, particularly in places (like rural Arizona) where AP work by the average student is, ahem, not a routine expectation.

It's the same where I went to high school in upstate NY. The top 15 or 20 students in my class had weighted GPAs over 100 because of AP classes and the factor system.

It's just like trying to explain to people what a GPA over 4.0 means.
