{{Humor}}The mythical 5.0 GPA at Gunn, which would theoretically be achievable by taking only weighted classes and getting A's in all of them, has not been recorded by any person in Gunn's history, although some people, such as Alan Lee, have come close. There is a prophecy that one day, a person will come to Gunn who has a 5.0 GPA, who will win the international math, chemistry, informatics, biology, and physics olympiads, who will get into Julliard by playing an unknown instrument, and who will qualify for all of the most prestigious summer camp programs. Such a person has not come to Gunn yet, although there are some Gunn students, such as Agustya Goel, who have come close to fulfilling the prophecy. There are serious doubts as to whether such a GPA can even be achieved at Gunn due to the existence of mandatory unweighted courses such as [[World History]] and [[Living Skills]], as well as freshman courses not being weighted. Thus, many Gunn students have denied the prophecy as not being true. The theoretical maximum weighted GPA is 4.75, given that freshman classes are not weighted.
