I'm not apply for schools this session but I was wondering if I can see what my AADSAS gpa looks like compared to my transcript gpa since people have said it will be different.
 
For +/- schools

A = 4.0
A- = 3.66
B+ = 3.33
B =3.0
B- = 2.66

Hopefully you didn't manage worse then this...

I had 2 F's as well. I heard someone saying that AADSAS counts them against your GPA even if you retook the class.
 
dang it!
My school counts A- as 3.7. that's gonna hurt my GPA 🙁
 
If you retake a course, AADSAS will calculate both GPA. Say for example, I got an F in a 3 unit class the first time and retake it and get an A. The average of the grades will be a C, but the total units will be 6.

By the way, although A- on AADSAS is 3.667, its B+ is 3.333 so the .33 you lose from 3.7 will be somewhat compensated by the 3.333.

Ah crap I was afraid of that. Thanks for the info though.
 
how do you calculate the AADSAS GPA? for example, if i have a B- in my transcript, is that a B- for AADSAS too ?

Yes is that is the grade you got for the class the first time around. If a B- is what you got taking the class for a second time then the 2 grades would be averaged.

My school does too, but it also counts a B+ as 3.3, not 3.33 like stated above in AADSAS. So in the end, it tends to balance out and I didn’t notice any difference.

However if all you earned all A’s and A-’s with nothing lower, then you may get a slight dip.
 
so you should only worry about calculating the grade if you retook a class?
