LOL - that was my first thought too. Some schools, however, do take into account the rigor of high school coursework in the admissions decision. For example, an applicant from a competitive and challenging high school with a lower GPA might be weighed the same as an applicant with a higher GPA from a less challenging high school, within reason.
