Hi, All
I have a question: what is this "admission average 92%" for example ... is it like GPA or is it position in class?
Thanks |

no. it's your mark. For example, if you got a 90 in math, 90 in physics, 90 in Chem, and a 90 in DEnglish, you average would be 90. Your GPA is a very different measure. Just look at your report card to calculate it. |

3.85 is either B+ or A-, is that what you mean? |

It is average:
Fall semester I had A, A, A- : GPA was 3.9
Spring semester I had A, A-, A- : GPA was 3.8
And for whole year it is 3.85 |
