Does a a- or B- make a difference for college

Applying to College
1

<p>I f I get an A- in a class will it make difference for my college transcript of GPA</p>

2

<p>At my school, it doesn't make any difference in GPA.</p>

<p>I asked this to a Stanford Rep, and she said that an A- is treated as an A (GPA wise)</p>

3

<p>My school does not use the "plus" and "minus" system. I don't think it makes too big of a difference.</p>

4

<p>Usually, no. Most colleges don't distinguish between minuses and pluses. An A is an A is an A.</p>

5

<p>Most colleges recalcualte grades and disregard +/- grades. However most colleges use +/- grades themselves.</p>

6

<p>I would have a 4.0 uw if they didn't use +/-! With it, I'd have a 3.88 uw or something...
HAHAHA I'm very excited.</p>

7

<p>My school doesn't even give a GPA (since it's afraid that we'll all be at each other's throats...it's competitive, to say the least), so +/- is the same, at least to me. Although the A+ does give you a boost of confidence compared to an A :)</p>
