Ok..so here's the thing about my gpa. my counselor said my GPA is a 3.5 unweighted and a 3.8 weighted. But i got was offered a scholarship to a local university & the minimum unweighted gpa to get that scholarship was 3.8. so i'm not sure if schools calculate it differently or what. so just to keep a little leeway in my chances, let's just say my unweighted gpa is 3.5 & weighted is 3.8.<br>
