<p>FSU asks for self reported gpa. Does it mean unweighted or weighted. The problem is that my weighted is a 5.2 and it only lets me use a scale from 0.0-5.0. Do i just put my unweighted?</p>
<p>Well they tell you that for honors you add half a point and for AP,IB and DE courses you add a full point.so if you got a B in an honors class you get 3.5 points.if you got an A in an AP class then u get 5 points.you will have to look at your transcript and calculate it your self,but only do it for academic classes.no p.e or ceramics,ect.</p>
<p>FSU only allows you to report up to a 5.0 GPA because that’s as high as they calculate. Under FSU’s scale, it’s simply impossible to go above a 5.0- and that’s assuming that you took all AP/IB/Dual Enrollment courses in high school, which is extremely unlikely. </p>
<p>You can calculate your own GPA for FSU rather easily, although there used to be a website that had a worksheet you could print off to do it very easily as well. </p>
<p>Simply take all of your grades in your core classes (science, math, english, etc), and weight them by adding 0.5 to the score (4 for an A, 3 for a B, 2 for a C, 1 for a D) for any Honors/Pre-IB classes, and 1.0 to the score for any AP/IB/Dual Enrollment class. </p>
<p>The reason FSU only allows you to self-report up to a 5.0 is because that is the highest that their GPA scale goes, and that this scale is the standard scale out there. Your school/county may be weird and allow people to get a higher GPA or whatever, but that is why FSU standardizes them.</p>
