onerepublic96 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 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?

WallaceShawn Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
