Question that has never been answered???

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Berkeley

<p>So the UC booklet has the Cal Berkeley average gpa at 4.17 but the freshman profile on the website <a href="http://students.berkeley.edu/admissions/freshmen.asp%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://students.berkeley.edu/admissions/freshmen.asp&lt;/a> has a weighted and unweighted gpa at 4.26 and 3.83. Is the weighted Gpa with all accepted weighted courses in california in the sophomore and junior years weighted?</p>

<p>Yes, that is very confusing how they give different gpa's and never really explain it. I would guess that the first is the UC GPA (soph + jr a-g with the capped weight), the second is the total HS A-G GPA (W) taken from transcripts and processed for admitted profiles, etc, and the third is the regular UW HS A-G GPA. Just a guess, though.</p>

<p>Cool but no one else knows for sure?</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure what Bessie said is right, i.e. 4.17 is capped UCGPA, 4.26 is total weighted GPA, and 3.83 is unweighted GPA.</p>
