So my school adds 7 points to each honors and AP course. WIth that I have like a 3.8 GPA. The numerical grades with the 7 points are the grades you will see on my transcript. Is that all colleges are going to see? Would they strip those 7 points off? Also, does anyone know what schools recalculate high school GPAs or do they all look at unweighted. This is just so confusing
Most schools looked at unweighted. Some, like the UCs, recalculate your GPA to fit their GPA scale.
Some schools recalculate GPA and others don’t. Recalculations can be things like including academic subjects only, unweighted etc. – the schools that do recalculate GPA often do not state exactly how it is done.
