A few questions on the admissions scoring system

<p>How many digits are considered in the conversion of a UC GPA to the 4500 possible points? Is rounding used? Would a 3.947 be rended as 3950 or 3947?</p>

<p>For leadership points, would co-editor of the school paper or team manager of a sports team be alloted leadership points?</p>

<p>Would a national championship first place finish in a non-school sport garner the full points for special talents (along with related activities and lesser awards)?</p>

<p>For classes above the minimum, how many points for each additional class and at what number of classes do the points start (if not at 31)?</p>

<p>Thank you, Skatj</p>

<p>That answers all but the first question, concerning the precision of the GPA used for the calculation. Anyone know that answer?</p>

<p>they wont round....
because 3947 is still a whole number. There's no decimal, it doesnt raise uncertainty so why would they round it. </p>

<p>Plus if it was rounded, u'd get 3 points. Big deal.</p>
