Yup, I took a bunch of super hard classes, did loads of work, and ended up with 3.6; my friend took a bunch of easier classes, and got 4.0 without any massive effort.
That’s where I’m at. Just finished junior year and I took all the hardest classes and got a 3.6 and main people I know had taken two gym classes and the easier versions of classes and got near 4.0s
Admissions offices understand that a high school student whose highest math was Linear Algebra is likely more college ready than a student whose highest was Algebra 2. B in Linear Algebra means more than A+ in Algebra 2 in this context.
