On the Rogerhub UC GPA calculator, you can input your extra honors points for the calculation (UC approved Honors/AP/IB or DE courses).

Each semester that you have taken one of these qualified courses, you get an honors point. Most of the UC’s use the capped weighted UC GPA which limits your Honors points to 8 semesters.

The Rogerhub calculator will give you the UW UC GPA, your Capped and Weighted (8 semesters of Honors points) and the Weighted (which is the fully weighted UC GPA with unlimited honors points for these courses taken in 10-11th).

AP’s and UC approved Honors courses taken in 9th do not count for the extra points but does show good HS course rigor.
SLO also uses the capped weighted but includes 9th grades but no honors points. Also SLO caps your GPA at 4.2 regardless of the calculation for their MCA points algorithm.

Most of the statistical GPA data for the UC’s is based on the Capped weighted UC GPA. UCLA/UCB does state the average fully weighted UC GPA on their website for comparison.
