How does college look at my GPA?

Take your pick. Schools vary greatly in how they look at your gpa. Weighted, unweighted, forgiving of a blah freshman year, recalc using only core classes stripping all weighted grades, and on. Universities vary as much as the high schools that are sending them grades. Weighted, unweighted, 4pt scale, 5pt scale, 100pt values, Pass/Fail, and on. It’s a maze!!
