<p>So yep..I really screwed up. I have a 3.333 weighted first semester and a 2.666 weighted second semester which combined is 5.999 and averages out to be a 2.999 since my school shows the gpa for each term to three decimal places. Does this equal an automatic rescindence since I don't meet the 3.0 senior year gpa?</p>
<p>Uhm, I doubt it. But that's just my opinion, I don't really know what UCI would say.</p>
<p>scared little boy, not at all.</p>
<p>just tell them about it.</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies.. I am really trying to bring one of my Cs up to a B so i get a 2.8 weighted this semester but when I tell them about it. Who do I call? What do they say or what do I tell them?</p>
<p>send message to admissions counselor through the myapplication thing or whatever</p>
<p>I think that, assuming you took the same number of courses both semesters, it should come out to a 3.0, mathematically speaking. </p>
<p>If you don't mind, what exactly was the distribution of grades for both semesters?</p>
<p>is is for sure weighted? because my college counselor at school says it is unweighted...i'm confused</p>
<p>weighted for UCI</p>
<p>unweighted for LA, BERK</p>
<p>1st semester:</p>
<p>AP Class: B
Reg Class: A
AP Class: C
Reg Class: B
Reg Class: B
Reg Class: B</p>
<p>3.000 unweighted, 3.333 weighted</p>
<p>2nd semester(not completed yet but most likely)</p>
<p>AP Class: B
Reg Class: C
AP Class: C
Reg Class: C
Reg Class: C
Reg Class: B</p>
<p>2.333 unweighted, 2.666 weighted</p>
<p>My school shows the GPA to three decimal places. When i got a 4 As and 2 Bs for a semester in junior year, it showed it as 3.666, instead of 3.67 or 3.667 : (.</p>
<p>they calculate as a whole so itll be 3.0.</p>
<p>It just truncates instead of rounding.</p>
<p>DWAI.</p>
<p>Alright thanks guys, I'm still gonna try to study hard for this final and bring up a grade. Thanks again.</p>
<p>OMG..Anyway I called UCI today again and I asked them about the senior contract, they are now telling me that it is a 3.0 weighted each semester. I called last time and I explicitly asked them if it was a 3.0 average of both semesters and they had told me yes. </p>
<p>In the contract it reads.
Your senior-year GPA in UC-approved courses must be at least a weighted 3.0. With SENIOR YEAR in bold. I also messaged someone through MyAdmissions and received the reply.
You must maintain a 3.0 weighted gpa overall. </p>
<p>I guess I misinterpreted everything.. Can't believe this is happening.</p>
<p>ohhh sheeeet.
i need to suck up to my math teacher tomorrow in order to get it to a 3.0 weighted. :(</p>
<p>You should call them again, or go see them in person. Because it does say "senior-year GPA". Really, just go talk to them in person.</p>
<p>I don't get how people have such significant grade drops? I mean I slacked off 2nd semester (didn't do homework for 3 months in 3 out of 4 AP classes--Econ, Calc BC, and Stats) but somehow I managed to get a higher GPA this semester. LOL 4.33 from "slacking off"</p>
<p>Well I called again today, it was a guy this time. Now he tells me its your senior year GPA not each semester. Hope he's right!</p>
