Is a 3.8 gpa good?

Asked by emeraldisles (1949points) December 26th, 2011

So in my school, the highest gpa you could have was a 4.0 which was last year. I had a 3.6. Now they changed the way classes are weighted meaning the people who are in honors and ap classes have a higher gpa overall. I’m in 1 honors class and now have a 3.82 gpa. This would be great but there’s always people who do so much better than me. There’s a girl who’s the number 1 student and she has close to a 4.4 gpa. She’s in 2 ap classes and 2 honors classes.I’m not complaining about what I do have.. I just feel so inadequate. I know how hard I work and struggle to get A’s and B’s.I can’t handle being in another ap /honors class because I get too overwhelmed, especially when it comes to math. How can I stop comparing myself so I can just be proud that I’m in the top 10% of my class.
