the right way to calculate gpa?

<p>i've heard of many ways to calculate gpas but i don't know what the heck is right for college admissions</p>

<p>i supposedly need an "unweighted GPA" and i'm not sure if that includes freshman year, and/or non academic classes. i just know unweighted=do not add a point for honor/ap courses. </p>

<p>can someone clarify what and how to do the unweighted gpa?
thanks!</p>

<p>Unweighted = includes all classes in all years that you have ever taken for a grade, weighted equally (A=4.0, B=3.0, etc).</p>
