<p>GatorGurl2-
Assuming you really scored a 730 on the math portion of your SAT.
Question-
How can your unweighed GPA of 3.6 translate ino a weighed GPA of a 6.2 ???</p>
<p>Yea Gatorgurl, </p>
<p>IB is counted as 5 weighted for UF with an A
Honors is counted as 4.5 with an A</p>
<p>Sorry, my high school weighted is 6.2 'cuz I’ve taken a lot of AP and IB and dual enrollment courses…I’m not exactly sure how to calculate my UF GPA! >.<</p>
<p>I just manually tried calculating my UF GPA…turns out to be a 3.8… So now what are my chances? >.<</p>
<p>im like 90% sure its impossible to have a 6.2 GatorGurl (;D) isnt it 5.0 for honors 6.0 for ap/dual enrollment?</p>
<p>Bluesmiles, I think your school’s system of calculating weighted GPA is a bit different from my school
</p>
<p>I actually think I calculated my UF GPA wrong…I’m afraid it might turn out to be lower… >.<</p>
