<p>I'm applying to a couple of UC's and I will have to use my UC GPA on the apps.</p>
<p>However, I'm also applying to some east coast private universities; should I give them my UC GPA or my normal weighted GPA (which is significantly higher)?
* say UC GPA is 4.1 and Weighted was 4.3</p>
<p>no point in giving UC gpa to another school. Give them your weighted GPA. Selective schools will recompute your GPA anyway, according to their own formula.</p>
<p>Those other schools are asking for your actual GPA, weighted if your school weights. The UC GPA is based only on grades in sophomore and junior year and then has limits to number of courses for which you can get a weighted grade; other colleges do not follow that particular system for determining GPA.</p>
