<p>A little more info…</p>

<p>My GPA of the actual classes I’ve taken at my current school is 3.92 (but as I said, those two classes I took 7 years ago for college credit are included on my transcript…and it clearly has (2002) beside it to show it wasn’t taken recently)</p>

<p>Here is a grading scale I found for GED scores. Not sure if any school actually looks at it. Apparently you just take your battery average (mine is 714) and match it up with your estimated hs GPA.</p>

<p>GED Score Estimated GPA
Below 300 = 0-1.0
300-400 = 1.5-1.9
401-500 = 2.0-2.9
501-600 = 3.0-3.4
601-700 = 3.5-3.7
701-800 = 3.8-4.0</p>
