Question about weighted GPA for non-ELC students (UC schools)

<p>Not sure where i should post this, but anyway,</p>

<p>So i read on the UC admissions website that for non-ELC students, only 8 semesters of honors or AP classes count towards our weighted GPA. Does that mean only 4 weighted courses (2 semesters for a course), or 8 weighted courses count? </p>

<p>Since i go to a highly rated school that churns out many high achieving students, the standards for ELC students are very high, so would they use a different system to calculate our GPA?</p>

<ol>
<li>8 semesters = 4 courses</li>
<li>no. it's the same system.</li>
</ol>
