CounselMore displays what the schools reports - CounselMore cannot add ( + or W) to existing data that is reported by the school to the Common Data Set. Counselors are advised to use custom columns to collect, track and cultivate their own private intel.
Colleges submit admissions results to the Common Data Set. That is the most reflected GPA data in CounselMore.
Most college recalculate GPA before and after the student is admitted. The "Admitted Class GPA" is more times than not, the school's recalculated unweighted GPA, unless the college makes an obvious statement of an average admitted class GPA above 4.00.
What does GPA stand for? GPA stands for “grade point average” and is usually calculated using a scale of 0 to 4.
Four is usually the highest GPA you can receive and corresponds to an A grade, and 0 corresponds to an F grade
