Two different schools for prereqs. How will GPA be calculated?

I just took physics II at a community college. How will the grade be factored into my science GPA? Will it just add normally with the others? It is not going to be factored into my university cGPA, but will it factor into my the cGPA that vet school will see?
Thanks!

Typically, they pool all classes and calculate things themselves. Your university's calculations are meaningless, they will ignore them and apply their own standards.

In this case, it will go into your cGPA, your sGPA, and (if you took it in your last 45) your last 45. It will be no different from a class you would take at your main school.

I have a somewhat related question - how is the science gpa calculated? I know it's different for different schools, but does anyone know how it's calculated for, say, UC Davis or UPenn? I'm wondering if it includes all of my science classes or just the prereqs. Thanks!

sorry for thread hijacking 🙁
