<p>I was just wondering when High Schools send in transcripts, do all HSs calculate the GPA (UW) the same way? Here is how my school does it:</p>
<p>A+/A: 4
A-:3.7
B+: 3.3
B: 3
B-: 2.7
C+: 2.3
C: 2
C-: 1.7
D+: 1.3
D: 1
D-: .7</p>
<p>You just add them all together and divide by the number of subjects (you take the average...).
Do all HSs do it like this? And more than that, colleges when they recalculate GPA?</p>
<p>My HS does:
A +/- 4
B +/- 3
C +/- 2
D +/- 1
F 0</p>
<p>5 for A's in weighted courses.</p>
<p>Mine is same as the OP, only A+'s count for about 4.3</p>
<p>And there's no weight for advanced courses. Which means 54309543987421 valedictorians (4.0+ qualifies for val), most of whome were in cake classes. >_></p>
<p>Same as OP, but we have no A+, and any .3 is .33 and any .7 is .67.</p>
<p>mine does the 4-A, 3-B, 2-C, 1-D, except after we divide by the number of classes we add .17 for each honor class</p>
<p>Mine does </p>
<p>100= 4.0
99 = 3.9
98 = 3.8</p>
<p>so on so forth</p>
<p>So an 82 = 2.2</p>
<p>You get a 1.0 addition if the class is Honors, AP, or IB. Which I don't think is fair, because an Honors course is nowhere near as tough as an IB one.</p>
