<p>Ok my weighted gpa for the past six semesters of my high school career has been a 3.636(bad, yes I know) however this semester I received a 4.25. I do not have my updated transcript with me. So would the calculation be 3.636(6/7) + 4.25(1/7)? I just want to be 100% sure before I put it on the commonapp. Also my class ranking would have changed after my grades this semester so should I just not put my class ranking and let them see it on the application, or should I use my old ranking? Thanks for the help in advance!</p>
<p>*let them see it on the transcript I mean, sorry it’s late</p>
<p>That would only be the calculation if you took the same number of credits each semester. You need to weight it by the number of credits. (3.6<em>#credits + 4.2</em>#credits) / total credits. This is basic algebra.</p>
<p>Ok thanks, and no need for the snide remark I always double check things that are pertinent even if I am pretty sure they are correct. But thanks anyway and yes in each semester I had the same number of credits.</p>
<p>always good to double check</p>
<p>Exactly my thinking</p>
