<p>UCs calculate your GPA using the grades that you received in a-g courses from the summer after your freshman year to the summer after your junior year. UCs do look at courses you take in freshman and senior years; the grades and rigor of your coursework are considered in context of your overall curriculum. But freshman and senior year grades are NOT included in the GPA calculation. UC-approved Honors, AP, IB and community college courses are weighted. For out-of-state applicants, only AP, IB, and community college courses are considered advanced coursework, honors courses are not weighted (but be sure to label your honors courses so they can be taken into consideration when your application is evaluated).</p>
<p>so does this also mean that community college courses taken during the summer after junior year count toward your gpa that will be shown to the UCs?</p>
<p>if so how would that work? would those courses count toward your junior year gpa?</p>
