<p>Is there a list online of the classes which are disregarded when finding out your GPA? I’ve been looking everywhere.</p>
<p>basically, the only classes that count are “academic” classes, which means:
sciences
maths
english and other languages
intense art classes (AP art portfolio/ 2D/ 3D would count, I think)
social studies (global, us history, whatever.)
AP classes are regarded. so I guess that includes AP psychology.</p>
<p>photo I, physical education, foundations in art I, home economics, cooking… etc… don’t count.</p>
<p>Music?</p>
<p>Computer classes?</p>
<p>Music does not count. Computer classes would probably depend on the class (they will count AP computer science…).</p>
<p>Why doesn’t music count? =(</p>
<p>I try harder in that than anything else.</p>
<p>Well… they’ll probably count AP Music Theory.</p>
<p>If you are good at paying an instrument,send an audition tape. It will help you more then “A” in band…</p>
<p>You mean a tape of me playing just in addition?</p>
<p>Yes (there is a special form you need to complete, and it has all the instructions).</p>
<p>for Stanford GPA, do they only see 10-12 or 10-11 </p>
<p>Because if one applies to Stanford SCEA, then he/she would only send 10-11 scores, or am I wrong?</p>
<p>10-11 for SCEA, 10-12 for RD</p>
<p>oh i see… and do they recalculate the GPA only counting academics (meaning no PE, orchestra, ceramics, etc grades)?</p>
<p>yes…</p>
