Your talking about gearscore the addon right?
Well gearscore the addon just has a set value for each piece of gear. (Normally higher itemlevel = better gearscore but not always)
Also blizzard dint make the addon gearscore.
Also are you talking about each individual item? or like the whole set. (Healing gear vs dps gear) Because you might have some lower stuff in you dps gear so it will cancel out the higher item level gear.
Gearscore might factor in class (I know it has a hunterscore for wepons) but it dosent change for spec. (My gearscore is the same in healing or boomkin spec with my healing gear on in both.)

Yeah, blizzard doesn't do gearscore, blizzard doesn't
like
gear scores. That add-on calculates one way, wow-heroes calculates another, and wowhead calculates yet a third. You'd likely have 3 different scores among them. My main has a few hundred points difference between wow-heroes and wowhead.
They do take gems and enchants into account, both
having
them, and their quality.
