When we all talk about unweighted GPA on CC are we comparing apples to apples?

Core classes as you mentioned only. Unweighted A=4, B =3, no +/-

This is the way I have seen more selective colleges change the scores to.

Thanks everyone. Appreciate the insight. I’ve come up with my best self-serving methodology. All classes (but PE) count, and we’ll use the UC approach of A=4, B=3, no +/-. Suddenly my unweighted GPA goes from 3.75 to 3.9. Wow, I feel good :slight_smile:

I think schools post how they do it also on their website or call admissions to make sure.
