Calculating Major GPA?

[onerepublic96]

Does anyone know the right way of calculating major GPA? My overall GPA is considerably lower than what I approximate my major (English) GPA must be because I started out as a science student, and I'd like to draw attention to my major GPA on applications, where it's asked for. I'm confused though, about how to actually calculate that. Do I include all the tangential courses required by my major (various humanities courses, foreign language, etc.) or focus just on those in my department?

I calculated mine with just the classes listed in my department or cross-listed. No Foreign languages or general ed requirements. It bumped my GPA by about .1, so I didn't fret over it too much.

Thanks for responding! I think that’s what I’ll do, as well.
