<p>At our school, honors classes ARE not weighted, so I have a significantly lower GPA than everyone else applying. Do colleges "recalculate" GPA for honors classes or calculates it in a consistent way for everyone? My GPA right now is a 4.28 weighted w/Aps, but a 4.8 weighted with honors. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks a lot!</p>
<p>Every college does it differently, I'm afraid. </p>
<p>Some colleges take what's right on the transcript. Others (like the UCs) recompute everything and double-check it twice. Then they randomly investigate people to see if they told the truth in what was submitted.</p>
