<p>Thank you for your very clear, thoughtful reply, drusba. Got it. His UC calculated/capped gpa is 4.1. His UC admissions index will be very high b/c it incorporates his 2300 sat. </p>
<p>His local high school ELC is completely different: based on gpa only. </p>
<p>And the class rank is different, too. DS’s GC just clarified that they use 9-11 grades for in-house rank, whereas UC uses only 10-11 when they calculate ELC. Hence the varied results…</p>
<p>I thank you all.</p>
