Hi guys, I have questions about counting GPA, is there a Max unit for counting overall gpa and science gpa? I have more than 150 units, some are from my master degree, some are from Undergrad, and some from community college. Do I count EVERY SINGLE ONE?

In a word, YES, everything counts. There is no "max unit" policy that I know of.

Graduate work has it's own section and its own GPA calculation, but also contributes to your overall GPA. CC work contributes to your undergraduate gpa. If you repeat classes, both grades are counted as well (even if your school doesn't count it, as in a "last grade counts" policy).

Good question though! From what I understand, it didn't used to be that way. My dad says that when he applied to dental school the first time, he didn't get in (too many frat parties freshman year!). He did a post-bac for a year, which essentially erased his first year of bad grades since they only looked at something like the last 90 or so credits.
