It's still not formatted for the new SAT I out of 2400...</p>

<p>This has been out since earlier this year. I posted that link on another board, and I told you that its not formatted out of 2400 and that I was merely making the best hypothesis I could.</p>

3

<p>I know, I just wanted an official thread announcing the stats! :rolleyes:</p>

4

<p>Alright, well at least everyone can see it now.</p>

5

<p>"19 honors/AP/IB/CL courses"</p>

<p>-GOSH!</p>

6

<p>Well, 19 honors/AP/IB/CL courses isn't too much of a stretch, if your high school offers a strong honors curriculum... 16 out of the 17 courses I took were honors-level courses (8 sophomore year, 8 junior year) not out of choice, but out of necessity... :rolleyes:</p>

7

<p>well isn't it semesters...i mean..19 courses? because 19 semesters seems right</p>

8

<p>yea i think its semester... but the UC only counts 16 anyway...or 8?</p>

9

<p>No they count 8 semesters.</p>

10

<p>But is it 19 Honors/AP courses that count toward your GPA? Probably not, but if you took all honors classes in high school, it'd come out to around 20 total.</p>

12

<p>^^^^ is for UCI we want UCLA here :)</p>

13

<p>no **** sherlock.</p>

14

<p>I love it how UCI has an admit rate of 60%... :rolleyes:</p>

15

<p>Ouch for the 4.25 GPA and 19 honors/AP courses. Oh well, I've set on everything else. :P</p>

16

<p>For the 4.25 GPA weighted,...is that the capped one??</p>

17

<p>the gpa is capped at 4.40 for uc's.</p>

18

<p>Yes, I think the 4.25 GPA is the capped one (i.e. the UC GPA).</p>

19

<p>No it's not.</p>

<p>"This GPA includes an extra grade point for all UC-approved honors courses (which include AP, IB, school-based honors, and transferable college courses) in which a grade of C or higher is earned. The maximum value possible is 5.00."</p>

<p>Note that the max is 5.00. When capped at 8 semesters, the max is not 5.00. </p>

<p>It also says "This GPA includes an extra point for all UC-approved honors courses". </p>

<p>Thus, it is not capped and hence "fully weighted".</p>

20

<p>Yeah, that makes more sense than what I thought, which was that the admissions web page would be more likely to report the UC GPA than the uncapped weighted GPA, since it's more relevant for admissions purposes... :rolleyes:</p>
