I have a question about the LSAC GPA, if anyone can please answer. Say I have a cumulative GPA of 3.87 at my community college by the time of graduation. I have all As, but one W in PreCalculus, which I retook the summer of my freshman year and got an A in, and a C in Calculus I, which I’m bummed out about because I should have just dropped the class back then. Anyways, some of the units I took are only transferrable to CSU and some that is both CSU but limited UC. Does that mean anything when the LSAC calculates my GPA from my first undergrad institution? Would they not count it into the GPA because some are not transferrable to a specific 4 year school? I worry about this because if they do not count them my GPA would be dragged down a lot because of that C. And yes, I know that the GPAs are eventually averaged out between the community college and wherever I transfer to, but as far as the community college GPA is concerned… Thanks!
The Withdraw is ignored, unless it is a Withdraw/Fail. (Some colleges note if you are failing at the time of the withdrawl. In such cases, a Withdrawl/Fail results in an F for lsac purposes.)
In general, all college courses count. But remedial classes do not.
