How does this GPA thing work out?

Members don't see this ad.

I am about to start school in May to get a 2nd Bachelor's in Biology from another University.

How will my GPAs be calculated?

Will the overall GPA be for both majors/schools or individual per degree?

If it is individual, will it be...
1st B.A. Overall GPA
2nd B.S. Overall GPA
Overall Science GPA?

As you can tell I am a bit confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The overall and science GPAs include all coursework you have ever completed, so yes your 2 majors will be combined into one number. But, AADSAS presents the GPA in different ways too. In addition to the combined overall, it will give breakdowns of GPA by institution attended and by semester. With that adcoms can easily identify how well you performed at different schools, and if you had any weak semesters. There's also a seperate breakdown for postgrad work if that applies.

Simply put, ALL the college courses you've ever taken for a grade would be factored into your overall GPA.

Let me stress what Jiga is saying. Every course is taken into account. The calculations will show overall GPA, Science GPA and BCP GPA. The only thing that will show two institutions will be the transcripts. The only other way to show separate GPA is by different types of degrees, Masters, Bachelors and/or PhD. Two bachelors will show as one GPA calculation.
