Ok, I'm SO excited that my AACOMAS finally got mailed out. However I'm a little upset because my GPA's are less than I had expected. I vaguely remember a post with this conversation before. Anyway, it has my Science GPA as a 3.51 which is a whole tenth less than my calc of 3.60. My other gpa seems to be right about accurate (a little bit less) at 3.38, I had calculated 3.39 per my transcript also. Even w/o math I had calculated my BPC gpa to be 3.58. Does anyone know in general where the difference could be coming from?
Thanks!
ERROR: I had thought I had a 3.39 but it was a 3.38 gpa on my transcript and originally calculated. So why the big diff on the science?

Maybe you counted Math in sci-gpa?

I thought I had done both ways but I'll just have to recheck and see. Maybe I accidentally added in the Physics I'm taking right now. Because I did figure that up to see if I should resend updated transcripts. I think I have the high or second high grade right now and class ends next week. So I'm pretty darn sure I'll be getting an A!

I wonder, if you send updated transcripts will that delay anything??
