GPA scales make no sense here, but usually the top varies somewhere between 4.0 and 5.0.

At the university I went to, I believe it went to 4.0 with honors, but I only knew one person who got remotely close to that. Honors was a separate process where they make you miserable in your last two years for no discernable benefit.
