Grades and Grade Point Averages (GPA)
Grades are assigned through application of standardized measurements rated by in letters (A to D), a range (example 1 to 6), a percentage of total number correct (example 70%), or as the number from of a possible total (example 50 out of 50). At predetermined set times through a school year, grades from subjects are averaged to give a Grade Point Average (GPA). The Cumulative Grade Point Average is the average of all grades over an educational life or specific for the total 4 years of high school.

Can I get into UW-Madison with a act score of 23 but a 4.0 GPA and being really involved?
It depends. From what it sounds like, you did not challenge yourself very much in your academic work. Having a 4.0 and then a 23 on the ACT generally means that you took easy classes in high school and were unprepared for the test. The people who review your application will notice that. With that being said, if you put a lot of work into many different extra-curricular activities (i.e. student council, sports, National Honor Society, band, etc.) then you might be alright. I remember a friend of mine almost got turned away from Madison for having a 4.0, a 26 on the ACT and being in 2 different sports. If you write good essays (make sure you have people edit them), and you continue to work hard in your senior year, your chances of getting in are fairly good in my opinion.
By the way, you can always retake the ACT. Study harder and improve on the sections you did worst on.

You total the number of quality points and divide that number by the number of credits the courses added up to. If each course was three credits, the quality points would be 12 for the A, 9 for the B, 6 for the C, and 0 for the F. The total would be 27 quality points divided by the number of credits attempted which would be 12 (if three credits each). Thus, the grade point average would be a 2.25 which is typically a C average. You can increase that average dramatically by repeating the course you received the F in.
I am Black with a 3.2 GPA can I get into Ohio State?
If your black, you can almost get into any school. Universities these days really want to even out the white/black ratio to not look like a racist school. You are a lucky one my friend. Ohio State for life.
What is the minimum GPA to get into UC Berkley?
Overall, the average GPA for those admitted was 4.23 and the average SAT I score was 1337.
Actually in 2007, for transfer students at least, the average admitted GPA was a 3.55. As for recent times, such as 2008 and 2009, the consesus is similar to that of 2007. For freshman applicants in 2007, the average GPA accepted was 3.88, not a 4.23. Even though, there were those who had a 4.23 GPA who got accepted, but the average was much lower than stated in the previous answer.
Yes you can. I was able to get in with a 3.4 GPA and outside of the top 25% of my class. (700 People)
I wasnt extremely involved in extra curricular activities. I was in a few things, but that's it. I did have upwards of 90+ Hours of Community Service though.
Your Test Scores can impact it as well. I scored a 29 on the ACT, but have a roomate at OSU who had a composite 21 and was able to get in.
So I would say you have a pretty good chance of getting in. Nothing guaranteed.
