Should I mention my overall GPA or cumulative GPA in my graduate school application?
I assume that you know that your overall GPA and your cumulative GPA are the same thing, and you're asking whether you should mention your GPA at all. If you think the overall GPA and the cumulative GPA are two different things, and you think this is an "a or B" question, then I don't think I can help you.But assuming that you're asking whether you should include your GPA in your application, you'll find that you have to include a copy of your transcript (at least if you're applying in the United States at an accredited institution), so your GPA will be evident. The only reason to mention it is if it think that is weak for some reason that deserves explanation.
Cumulative gpa calculate?
No. Depending upon how many credit hours you took each quarter, the math may work out to the same or similar result, that is not how cumulative GPA is calculated. Here is an illustration of the difference: Credits____Grade___Value_____Points 3_________D_________1_________3 3_________D_________1_________3 3_________C_________2_________6 3_________C_________2_________6 12__________________6________18___1.5 Q1 GPA 4_________D_________1_________4 3_________C_________2_________6 3_________B_________3_________9 3_________A_________4_________12 13__________________10________31___2.4 Q2 GPA 4_________B_________3_________12 4_________A_________4_________16 4_________B_________3_________12 3_________A_________4_________12 15_________________14_________52___3.5 Q3 GPA 4_________A_________4_________16 4_________A_________4_________16 4_________A_________4_________16 4_________A_________4_________16 16__________________16________64___4.0 Q4 GPA ___________________________________2.84 Simple Ave of 4 GPAs 56=================46=======165===2.95 True Cumulative GPA Since this example shows a higher number of credit hours in each quarter, simply averaging the four quarters undervalues the better grades on higher credit courses. The net difference is that the real cumulative GPA is 2.95 rather than the simple quarterly average of 2.84. The point value of your grades may be different (e.g., an A may be worth 5 points), but the math principle still applies.

Is it possible to improve my cumulative gpa in college?
The maximum GPA that a person can get per semester is a 4.0. Your current cumulative GPA is a 3.2. You have only completed 3 of your 8 total college career semesters. Do you get what I am saying? 1) The answer is yes you can raise your GPA to a 3.7. 2) Here's the math, so that you can chart your way to a higher GPA: Chart of Where You Currently Are -- Current Sem Cmp. ***. F1 3.40 1 3.40 F2 3.40 2 3.40 Sp1 2.79 - 2.81 3 3.20 Sp2 _._ 4 J1 _._ 5 J2 _._ 6 Sn1 _._ 7 Sn2 _._ 8 Formula: To calculate your current and potential future Cumulative GPAs, add all of the previous "Current" GPA data to date, and then divide that sum by the Sem. Cmp. to date. Finding: Regardless of if you got a 2.79 or a 2.81 in the recent semester it is still possible for you to graduate with a 3.7. If you got a 2.79 in the recent semester, then you need to average a 3.994 for each of the remaining semesters until you graduate. If you got a 2.81 in the recent semester, then you need to average a 3.99 in each of your remaining semesters. Work -- Current Sem Cmp. ***. Fresh 1 3.40 1 3.40 3.40 2 3.40 Soph 1 2.81 3 3.20 3.99 4 3.40 Junior 1 3.99 5 3.52 3.99 6 3.60 Sen 1 3.99 7 3.65 3.99 8 3.70 Current Sem Cmp. ***.

Happy Holidays.
My current GPA s 2.45- can I bring it up to a 3.5 by the end of the Spring 2010 semester? How?
I need to get it to a 3.5 and I am currently taking 4 classes (14.5 credits) and next semester I am taking 6 classes (19 credits). Will getting all A's bring it up to where it needs to be? If not, approximately how high will it get?
What is CGPA (scale of 10) means?
I remember when my 10th result came out it was 8.6 cgpa. This was my first time i saw result in cgpa in place of percentage like before. So i thought it means I've got 86%. But later i found out a lot of my friends getting 10 cgpa, so my perception was wrong.In 11th, about 18 students was 10 cgpa holder in my class, damn that was too much.CGPA stands for Cumulative Grade Point Average, it traces your progress in CBSE system & other systems of edu. which follows grade wise assessment.1 CGPA is equal to 9.5 percentile (remember not percentage) so 10 CGPA implies 95 percentile which can be anywhere between 95%–100%but since the lowest is always taken as the standard, 10 CGPA always implies 95% (add or subtract 5% from 100%)Actually in CBSE result us provided in based of scores in points. For every 10 marks, you get a point, starting from 0 to 10.0-9 : 1 points9-19 : 2 points19-29 : 3 points29-39 : 4 points39-49 : 5 points49-59 : 6 points59-69 : 7 points69-79 : 8 points79-89 : 9 points90-100 : 10 pointsActually scoring 10 cgpa does not means you have scored 100% or something like that.For example, if a person scores 90 marks in each subject, will actually score 90% but his cgpa will be 10 because he's a 10 pointer (10+10+10+10+10)/5= 10.But if a person scoring 89 in one subject and perfect 100 in 4 subjects will have (10+10+10+10+9)/5= 9.8 cgpa but his percentage will be (100+100+100+100+89)/5= 97.8% which is way more than his 10cgpa rival.10 cgpa has nothing to do with your performance, and i don't know why this rule is being used in CBSE.10cgpa just means that you scored above 90 in all subjects. For knowing percentile you can multiply your cgpa with 9.5. For example 10x9.5= 95%.Hope this will help :)
Converting my 4.847 gpa to an unweighted out of 4?
Without knowing your school's policy on how AP classes effect GPA, it is impossible to say. You need to ask this question to your guidance counselor.
