Questions (GPA Scale, JV letters)

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

<p>I have two questions about the common app.</p>

<p>1) What should I report for GPA scale if I’m using my weighted GPA? My school’s highest GPA possible is 4.0 UW and 5.0 W. However, 5.0 is impossible to achieve. Do I report 4.7 W on a 4.0 scale, or 4.7 W on a 5.0 scale?</p>

<p>2) For sports, does letters earned refer to varsity letters only? For example, I ran XC varsity 10-12, so I would put Varsity Letters (10, 11, 12). However, I also received a certificate freshman year. I ran track for three years, but haven’t won any varsity letters. Do I put anything for letters earned?</p>

<p>You would report 4.7 on a 4.0 scale, not on a 5.0 scale. At least that’s how my counselor told me to do it…</p>
