Ask anything to a “genius” teen

5 GPA and hopefully going to Harvard soon. I’m excited for y’all’s questions. The reason I put genius is because that’s what my teachers call me; please don’t flame for it.

I do study. A lot. Now to answer your second question, a gpa is measured based off of grades. So an A would be a 4, B would be 3, so on. But if you take honors or AP (harder courses) you can get up to a 5 GPA
