<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I'm considering applying to JHU this coming fall but am not sure how to calculate it's GPA. If someone could help me out, that'd be fantastic! Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Does JHU consider UW or W or both? </p>

<p>Some schools don't consider non-academic courses such as PE and Health when calculating their GPA; do Marching Band and Symphonic Band fall into this category of non-academic courses for JHU? </p>

<p>What years of high-school do JHU consider (ie. 9th-11th, 10th-11th, 10th-12th_firstsemester, etc.)? </p>

<p>Do classes taken at a local community college count towards the GPA? If I took a course the summer between 9th and 10th grade, would this course be considered part of 9th or 10th? </p>

<p>Does JHU superscore the SAT?</p>

<p>Thank you very much and have a wonderful summer!</p>

<p>This is the "superscore" thread: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=367324%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=367324&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>AdmissionsDaniel said in another post which I can't find that GPA is considered in the order 10,11,9,12 I think (correct me if I'm wrong). UW and W are both considered, I think.</p>
