When do they look at 12th
calm condor
they recalculate ur gpa
dim badge
they recalculate ur gpa
i cant find any sources on that tho
calm condor
if its a B in ur schol. it can be ;-; unfortunately. UNLESS your transciprt also shows percentages
calm condor
but none of those are from stanford themselves
admission officers have said it too
dim badge
admission officers have said it too
the one i talked to didnt mention anything about it
calm condor
because they didn't feel the need to .-.
dim badge
thats why im not sure
calm condor
+ outdated
think baout it: why get rid of this "recalcaulte gpa" system.
if u try to compare gpas from different schools, it just doesn't wrok
dim badge
think baout it: why get rid of this "recalcaulte gpa" system.
why have a "recalculate gpa" system when you look at someones application in context
jolly summit
so my recalculated would be a 3.82
dim badge
if u try to compare gpas from different schools, it just doesn't wrok
it doesnt work regardless
every school has grade inflation/deflation
they dont "compare" applications
calm condor
every school has grade inflation/deflation
thats true but thats like too in detail for admissons.
dim badge
thats the one thing i remember them explicitly saying
calm condor
not like the admission officers can walk into ur school and take classes to see if there is inflation
also ur still comparing withint the setting of your own school
another way they use reclaculate gpa is to dsmiss classes like freshman seminar
or student assistant
from ur gpa
if ur schools have stuff lke that
dim badge
another way they use reclaculate gpa is to dsmiss classes like freshman seminar
ya i heard that
not the recalculate gpa flat part tho
it doesnt work when looking in context of the school profile
calm condor
not the recalculate gpa flat part tho
oh that. okay so we agree they recaulcate gpa
dim badge
oh that. okay so we agree they recaulcate gpa
yeah they do
calm condor
gib me a second to double check a source
pine rain
the one i talked to didnt mention anything about it
I’m almost certain they do
dim badge
I’m almost certain they do
but whats the point
if you're looking at a school that has interquartile ranges of gpa that use the A+/B+ system
you'd need to take into account A+ B+ to see where a student stands in terms of their school
pine rain
you'd need to take into account A+ B+ to see where a student stands in terms of ...
Let me find a source
pine rain
But i think they also recalculate gpa where an A+ is an A
dim badge
But i think they also recalculate gpa where an A+ is an A
im not sure if its a widespread myth cuz a lot of things tend to be lol
like the multiple people applying to one school from ur hs making it harder for u
thats false
calm condor
you'd need to take into account A+ B+ to see where a student stands in terms of ...
well some schools also don't have A+'s and B+'s. also some teachers don't believe in an A+ being better than A (why? i have no clue). .-.
dim badge
well some schools also don't have A+'s and B+'s. also some teachers don't believ...
yeah but they cant recalculate the schools reported average gpa for the class
if the school calculates A+ as 4.0
and A as 3.7
pine rain
im not sure if its a widespread myth cuz a lot of things tend to be lol
I only found smth from solomon admissions
dim badge
I only found smth from solomon admissions
im gonna ask
pine rain
Solomon is well respected though
calm condor
yeah but they cant recalculate the schools reported average gpa for the class
they reclacuate given the classes u take?
pine rain
They have ex-stanford aos on their team
dim badge
they reclacuate given the classes u take?
thats true
calm condor
not straight from the gpa
dim badge
i feel like it has to be considered
to understand how a student is doing in context of their school
calm condor
They have ex-stanford aos on their team
it should be but its probable that don't. now that they mentioend this
dim badge
and your gpa in respect to your school's average
if they report
but stanford considers class rank
calm condor
but stanford considers class rank
this is true
pine rain
but stanford considers class rank
If your school ranks
calm condor
.-. looking at jerry's file it doesn't tell u specific letter grades for each course
only gpa and courses
calm condor
its online but ill send the pdf again
dim badge
oh wait i have it
calm condor
lmao
calm condor
Just in case anyone else needs this
calm condor
what the fuck research at dartmouth is insane
wait actually they might actually see ur gpa
dim badge
his recalculated su6 is 4.00
pine rain
Just in case anyone else needs this
Maybe delete it an resend it with the name censored
dim badge
they recalculate to take electives out of ur gpa calculation
so theyt ake into accoutn both
your school gpa
calm condor
Maybe delete it an resend it with the name censored
its online?
dim badge
and su6
calm condor
on a video?
calm condor
yeah
pine rain
I thought it was some random friend of urs
calm condor
lol nah

I thought it was some random friend of urs

REA Stanford Fs
If you care about school community you should not go to Columbia
This is the case at any top school, but it’s probably the worst here because we have too many students

I definitely romanticized here but I thought that the issues it has wouldn't be that big
naive plinth
Is there a specific reason why
naive plinth
I definitely romanticized here but I thought that the issues it has wouldn't be ...
Oh like class sizes?
foggy mauve
Yeah
That's a big one
The area just also feels extremely unsafe
Those are like two of the main ones that I tell ppl
The only issue is if I apply for transfer it's only worth it at like three schools
naive plinth
The area just also feels extremely unsafe
That’s so real I was in Oakland when I was in the hospital 3 miles from Berkeley and like …

Why is that
I’m looking for premed or prevet
naive plinth
I have to get a 4.0 though
I heard Berk deflates a lot
foggy mauve
yeah we deflate like crazy
foggy mauve
Why is that
if you're looking to get into a top med school you need a high GPA which is very difficult to achieve here
naive plinth

Yikes

Do you think that’s the case at la too

Yes but to a lesser extent

Hmm ok
naive plinth

I feel like Berkeley just looks ideal bc it’s right next to home for me
foggy mauve
Like if you're ok with just giving up on a social life you'll be fine here
Which is what I do
naive plinth
Like if you're ok with just giving up on a social life you'll be fine here
Oh 😭
foggy mauve
I feel like Berkeley just looks ideal bc it’s right next to home for me
Yeah I mean if you just commute and study you'll be successful here
naive plinth
I alr did in high school I was lowkey hoping not to do that in college
naive plinth
Yeah I mean if you just commute and study you'll be successful here
I probably wouldn’t commute but I want to be close to my parents
naive plinth
The college social life and all
I don’t want to be studying 24/7
foggy mauve
Unless you either find a great group that doesn't care that you're busy or you just min-max for social life
naive plinth
Like I can but that’s not ideal
naive plinth
Unless you either find a great group that doesn't care that you're busy or you j...
Fair
foggy mauve
Like I study basically 24/7 but my social hour is also studying
Just that I study with others and complain about courses
naive plinth
😭
foggy mauve
So I mean yeah if study group gossip is enough for social life then you're fine here
I really would not reccomend consuming alcohol either
naive plinth
I want to have a more balanced life fs
foggy mauve
Yeah this is not the place for one haha
naive plinth
Yeah this is not the place for one haha
😭 noted
Yk maybe Berkeley will reject me and I won’t have to decide
Either way I can sacrifice my social life if needed
foggy mauve
Yk maybe Berkeley will reject me and I won’t have to decide
Yeah I would apply anyways
naive plinth
Yeah I would apply anyways
Yeah ofc I can decide once decisions come out and I visit
Also my dad would murder me if I didn’t apply
foggy mauve
Also my dad would murder me if I didn’t apply
