If so how is it done?
Most schools really just focus on your unweighted GPA. A:4.0, A-: 3.7, B+: 3.33 …
@SternBusiness Thanks, but my school has an A+ at a 4 and an A at a 3.8. Do you think Ross would recalculate a 3.85 to a 4 or not?
Yes most likely that is what they would do. An A technically is a 3.8 ( 3.8=94/100) but I am pretty sure they focus on the usual 4.0 scale.
UMich recalculates uwGPA with simple 4.0 scale without subgrades. So A+, A, and A- are all 4.0.
Nope, they stopped doing it in 2009.http://www.michigandaily.com/content/u-no-longer-recalculate-gpa-admissions-process
WOw thats weird. Did not know that.
@SternBusiness @billcsho Thanks
That is one of the reason why they have 21% enrolled freshmen with GPA 4.0 from HS.
That makes sense. Thanks I was wondering how that many people could have a 4.0.
@billcsho Did they stop recalculating your GPA at one point and then start again because thats what it looks like from online articles.
@JT199854 They did stop recalculating GPA a few years ago and they publicize it. Then they resumed recalculation of GPA silently and they changed the method.
@AnEpcIndian They did resume recalculating GPA the year afterward.
@JT199854 You should post this question in the UMich subforum and this question has been answered many times.
