Student ID:                    

Section 1: Academic Course GPA Calculation

*Prerequisite Course

 
Academic Support Courses Completed Grade Grade Point X Semester Credit hourse Completed Grade Points
*BIO 137 Anaromy and Physiology I with Lab B 3.0 x 4.0 12
BIO 139 Anatomy and Physiology II with Lab A 0.0 x 4.0 0
* AHS 115 Medical Terminology A 4.0 x 3.0 12
*MAT 150 College Algebra or Higher level quantitative reasoning course A 4.0 x 3.0 12
PHY 171 Applied Physics   0.0 x 4.0 0
*CIT 105 Introduction to Computers (Digital Literacy) A 4.0 x 3.0 12

Total Number of Earned Grade Points = 48

Cumulative GPA on Degree Plan Courses

Note: All scores will be converted to a base of 40 because of GPA, i.e., a GPA of 4.0 will be converted to: 4.0 x 10 = 40

Cumulative GPA = Number of Grade Points Earned ÷ Number of Attempted Semester Credit Hours

Therefore: GPA = 48 Grade Points ÷ 13 Attempted Semester Credit Hours GPA = 3.69
The GPA of 3.69 is converted to 3.69 X 10 = 36.9 Points

Section 2: ACT Examination Composite Score

 

ACT Test Composite Score Preference Points:
19-22 = 10 Points    23-26 = 20 Points   27-31 = 30 Points    32-36 = 40 Points

Applicants ACT Composite Score (c) = 22

Score Weighting for Final Ranking

GPA = 60%          36.9 x .60 = 22.14
ACT = 40%          10 x .40 = 4

Allied Health Professional License: None ( 0 points )

Final Ranking Score = 26.14

PHY 171 Applied Physics C 2.0 x 4.0 8
*CIT 105 Introduction to Computers (Digital Literacy) A 4.0 x 3.0 12

Total Number of Earned Grade Points = 62

Cumulative GPA on Degree Plan Courses

Note: All scores will be converted to a base of 40 because of GPA, i.e., a GPA of 4.0 will be converted to: 4.0 x 10 = 40

Cumulative GPA = Number of Grade Points Earned ÷ Number of Attempted Semester Credit Hours

Therefore: GPA = 62 Grade Points ÷ 21 Attempted Semester Credit Hours GPA = 2.95

The GPA of 2.95 is converted to 2.95 X 10 = 29.5 Points

Section 2: ACT Examination Composite Score

ACT Test Composite Score Preference Points:
19-22 = 10 Points   23-26 = 20 Points   27-31 = 30Points   32-36 = 40 Points

ACT Composite Score: (𝓍) ÷ 2.5 = (𝓍) (Note: to convert the score to a base of 40, the ACT Composite score is divided by 2.5)

Applicants ACT Composite Score (𝓍) = 17

Score Weighting for Final Ranking

GPA = 60%         29.5 x .60 = 17.7
ACT = 40%         (𝓍<19) = 0
