I dont know if anyone knows the answer to this, but I'll throw it out. I am applying for dental school (MCG) and there is a section that asks to put down your grades and hours for college work. I took joint enrollment classes in high school to earn credit for college before I started, do I include those and do those grades count toward my overall GPA. I realize this is an odd question, but any input would be appreciated greatly! Thanks.

They count if they appear on your college transcript. Does that make sense?

with that how do quarter hours compare to semmester hours when calculating grades? for instance how would you add a A with 5 quarter hours to a b with 3 semmester hours... would it just be (4x5 + 3x3) / 8 ? = 3.625 or is there a conversion?

Oooh, good question. I have no idea, but I'm sure somebody else will know. Sorry.
