Recalculated UC GPA

<p>when UC's recalculate your GPA for admission, do they add an extra point for every honors/AP course, or only up to 8?</p>

<p>i understand that for elegibility, UCs only consider up to 8 honors courses, but my high school counselor told me that for the actual admission decision process, all honors courses will give you an extra point.</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

(only the classes with a star by them are official UC approved weighted classes )
i hope this helps!</p>

<p>thanks =)</p>

<p>what i wanted to ask though was do UC's cap off weighing at 8 classes or do they go ahead and weigh all of your approved honors and AP classes. (i have about 18 semesters worth of honors classes)</p>
