Ok. But not all colleges recalculate. (Those I know that do are publics.) A tippy top private will look at the transcript and see rigor, distribution, and grades. Stanford may ignore + or -, they don’t consider freshman year in decision making. But as an admit is more than gpa, why would they even need to recalc? The GC will report the hs gpa, how rigorous he/she feels the applicant’s courseload was/is, and provide some written feedback.

OP, just read up on what Stanford and the colleges at its level do say.
