<p>Private colleges it will be individual from school to school. The UCs will not include religion grades in your gpa...only the "core classes". The UC website spells out their formula in detail...or do a search this forum for UC formula and several CC posters have detailed out the formula in their posts.</p>
<p>At my school, AP/IB or not, if you get an A in the class it's a 4.0. Nothing goes above 4.0. Does that relate to weighted or not?</p>
<p>As for GPA calculation, my school add all the points I've recieved from all my classes and divide it by the number of classes I took and that'll be my final GPA. I'm not sure, but I think that's how it work.</p>
