GT Recalc

hey, does anyone know if GT adds .5 for honors and ap's or .5 for honors and 1 point for ap's?

(the latter might've been something else, but i forget)

3.7+ is in the safe range

I just took a look at the most recent application, and I couldn't find anything that suggested a GPA recalculation.

You'd be in pretty good shape if that's what you have. GT really cares about the math portion of the SAT / ACT.

You should ask GT, for I do not recall any there being recalculation when I applied last year, and as I said, I couldn't find any statement verifying the existence of a recalculation in the current application.
