<p>My high school caps our weighted gpas for valedictorian reasons, so the highest you can get is a 4.32. Without this cap, I would have a much higher gpa, so I was wondering if, when I apply to college, they will calculate my real weighted gpa or go with my school’s capped gpa…? Does anyone know?</p>
<p>Thanks!!</p>
<p>Usually colleges recalculate GPAs using their own standards</p>
<p>Many colleges cap the recalculated GPAs too. Some UCs have officially admitted it.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot. I don’t really care if the college caps it, so long as my high school’s cap doesn’t put me at a disadvantage</p>
<p>Your counselor sends in a School profile along with your transcripts that will explain the cap to your colleges.</p>
<p>oh no def dont worry, they put it in their own gpa system cuz so many schools have different systems</p>
