GPA Calculations
Started by Pandoo
I Just got off the phone with AADSAS, she said 3 weeks or less and that some people already have their GPAs calculated.......It says 4-6 weeks and that's the consensus I've seen on here (and frustration).
mine were received 6/8 and 6/14! im hoping they do mine today.My transcripts were received 6/8 and 6/13. Verified and calculated yesterday (6/16).

LOL Mine, too!! Received on 6/8 and 6/13. Verified and calculated this morning!!
I guess they try to overestimate the time so that people can't complain about their speed..except now people see others getting theirs this quick

No I'm wondering about these DAT scores.

and what is the difference between "Inc +-" GPA and "W/O +-" GPA?😕
I would assume that if your University had the +/- system that they calculated the +/- system into your "Included +-" GPA, but since many schools do not use the +/- system they also calculate your GPA "without the +-"
I am not sure which one carries more weight for your application though.

I would have guessed that you asked this question because both GPAs are the same for you. The reason why is probably because your school doesn't grade on the plus/minus system. And just so you know, plus/minus does make a difference...either good or bad. It's good for me at least.
How long after AADSAS receives all your transcripts is your GPA calculated?
for most people, its 2-3 weeks. I took them less than 2 weeks for mine

GPA is better without +/- for me..but not by much?

Probably you have a few more minuses. Mine is better with +/- because most of my B's are B+'s....and some A's are A+'s. But I don't know which GPA does the school put more emphasis on... An upward trend is probably what they are looking for. With +/-, BBB's can be B- => B => B+ just to show an upward trend lol
