Patricia5827 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Anyone know the right way to calculate your prereq gpa? I think thats the biggest factor that will decide what schools I apply to. I tried just calculating your gpa as you would normally with just the prereq classes (most schools seem to just want bio 1, bio2, either orgo 1/2 or chem 1/2, micro, stats, psych, and A&P1/2) but iit turned out weird. I had a school email me last year when i applied stating my prereq gpa was only like 3.02, and today I got around 3.5 so im definitely not doing it right. Anyone can help me? Thank you!

DarcyJ Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Hmm. Idk. I just tested it from the forum website and through Tapatalk and it worked both times. Try clearing your temporary internet files (cache, cookies, etc.) and try again. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia5827 Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 its still not letting me put in anything for the credits or quality points do you know any other websites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcyJ Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 OK give this one a shot. It gave me a cGPA 0.03 lower than my CASPA calculated cGPA. And, CASPA gave me a cGPA 0.01 higher than my manual calculation by hand. So, seems to just be some rounding differences as far as I can tell. http://graduateschool.colostate.edu/for-faculty-and-staff/admissions-resources/transcript-gpa-calculator/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia5827 Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 ok, thank you . did you use it to calculate your prereq gpa and was it close? ive already calculcated my sGPA and cGPA im just trying to see if im doing my prereq gpa right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcyJ Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Ah. Well, my prerequisite GPA was pretty easy so I didn't use a calculator. I would imagine though, that if it was within 0.03 for my cGPA--which included seven schools, two of which were on quarters--that it would be pretty close for just prerequisites.
