<p>I asked my Umich admissions counselor and she told me they do recalculate for the admissions process</p>
<p>@wishfulwolverine yes they do. I met w a rep earlier this year and they unweight your classes and recalculate you based on their scale.</p>
<p>“To answer your questions: we do recalculate GPAs, based on an unweighted, 4.0 scale. We also round all grades to “whole” grades, meaning we round B- or B+ to a B; a C- or a C+ are just Cs, etc. When we recalculate we do use all grades, however, including those classes we don’t consider to be “academic” subject areas.”</p>
<p>That’s what she told me</p>
<p>would any of you guys be annoyed if i asked you guys to chance me…? i know everyone asks but…</p>
<p>@joohyo
You keep thinking you’ll get deferred because you have to fantasize in order to stave off thoughts of your impending rejection, you prating idiot.</p>
<p>so they use gym and health too…? and according to what i just calculated, my UW would be a 3.45…<em>sob</em></p>
<p>No I’m 100% confident they recalculate your gpa’s to that scale.
Like they’ve said it on both of the school tours I’ve been on.</p>
<p>@2014emily2014 are you sure she wasn’t only referring to schools that only send weighted GPAs? I read an article elsewhere about how Michigan is no longer re-calculating unweighted GPAs because the difference was pretty nominal for most applicants.</p>
<p>@theroyalgoyal ^ cool story</p>
<p>[‘U</a>’ to no longer recalculate GPA in admissions process - The Michigan Daily](<a href=“http://www.michigandaily.com/content/u-no-longer-recalculate-gpa-admissions-process]'U”>'U' to no longer recalculate GPA in admissions process)</p>
<p>With 50,000+ applicants there is no way they recalculate everyone’s GPA.</p>
<p>soooooooo no?</p>
<p>sorry to be annoying, but is it possible to get in with a 3.45UW? i have a good sat score 2260 as well as ecs/essays/recommendations</p>
<p>@potato if you pm me, ill chance you if you chance me</p>
<p>You can be dismissive, but U of M will still see that you have a 25 on the ACT.</p>
<p>Hahaha yours all worried with 3.7s </p>
<p>I have a 3.1 UW but my counselor says I have a really good shot (I know sounds crazy) but we send a good amount of kids to UM for our school size to UM and the rep says they love kids from our school and know its hard</p>
<p>Michigan recalculates all gpas for admissions. I’ve been told this multiple times by my admissions counselor, the admissions staff during a tour, and the admissions staff during a view of the u day.</p>
<p>@spongebob123 just cross your fingers and hope for the best. that’s what I’m doing… I can’t go back and change my gpa, classes, or act score. I can only hope that the colleges I applied to think I’m good enough, and if I’m not, theres another college out there that will. everyone here is worth something and good enough for something. if u of m doesn’t think me, or you, or any other applicant dying here from anxiety is good enough, then they deserve to go some where who will. we will all end up where we are meant to be, and that is the silver lining is this horrible, horrible application process.</p>
<p>@theroyalgoyal hahaha yaaaaa.</p>
<p>Well I talked to my counselor a few months ago soooo I’m going to say that’s more accurate than an article from 2009</p>
<p>^@potatoo just took the words out of my mouth. I mean you got into purdue and uiuc i dont think you should be worrying haha</p>
<p>So are you going to believe an article? Or the admissions staff on live chat?
They recalculate everybody’s gpa’s to be able to view from a uniform standpoint
100% sure</p>
