Article: While you shouldn't talk to anyone when class is in session, that doesn't mean you can't strike up a conversation with the people sitting next to you before or after class. If you hit it off with one of your neighbors, you'll be on your way to becoming friends! For example, before class starts you could say to your neighbor "Hey. How was your weekend?" or "Have you started working on your project yet?" You can chat with them whenever you're both grabbing things from your lockers in between classes. Don't worry if it's just small talk at first after a while, you can get to know each other better and become friends! For example, you could say "Hey, I really like your backpack. Where did you get it?" or "What class do you have next?" The best way to make new friends is to branch out and surround yourself with different people. Instead of sitting at your usual table during lunch, look for a different table with an open seat and ask if you can sit there. If they say yes, sit down and join in on their conversation. It's okay if you feel a little shy at first that's totally normal! If you're not sure what to say, just bring up a topic that you're interested in, like a new movie that's coming out or the upcoming school dance. If you liked the people you sat with, ask if you can join them for lunch again the next day. If you see someone in the hallway that's in the same class as you, ask if they want to walk together. If it goes well, you can make it a daily thing. Over time, you might become good friends! If you're nervous and you can't think of anything to talk about, just bring up something about the class you're walking to. For example, you could say something like "What did you think about last night's homework?" or "Are you ready for that test next week?" Talking to someone new on the bus will make your bus ride less boring, and it's a great way to make a new friend! When you get on the bus, look for someone sitting alone and ask if you can sit with them. If you usually listen to music on the bus, ask the person what kind of music they like and offer to let them listen with you. If you're out of things to talk about, ask them if they're in any clubs or ask what classes they're taking.

Article: Certain classes have weights which alter the 'strength' of the class. A regular (also called on-level) class is multiplied by 1, or left alone. A PAP (which stands for Pre-Advanced Placements which can also be called Honours) is multiplied by 1.05. An AP (Advanced Placement, also called College or College Level) is multiplied by 1.1. Let's say a person N. has 5 classes, and these are his grades; PAP Literature=94, Regular Chemistry=87, AP World Civilizations=98, PAP Pharmaceuticals Training=82 and Track=100 (lf unspecified, assume regular). PAP Literature had a 94 which gets multiplied by 1.05 for 98.7%AJ (AJ=adjusted). Chemistry and Track are regular classes so they are left at their grades, respectively 87 and 100. PAP Pharmaceuticals Training is 82, multiplied by 1.05 is 86.1%AJ, and AP World Civilizations' 98 gets multiplied by 1.1 for a 107.8%AJ. The formula is very simple; (g+g+g...)/#g, when g=grade. Or in words, add the grades and divide by the number of grades added together. So 98.7+87+100+86.1+107.8=479.58. 479.58/5=95.916. So after rounding, Perso N. has a 95.2 or 96 GPA Percentage. lf the number seems too high or too low, be sure to check your math. lf on a calculator, be sure to use parenthesis or mistakes may occur.
