Sciences only).
For 2002,
estimated from percentage A's awarded and a formula derived from data on
percentage A's and GPAs from other universities.
For 2005, Spring term, method unspecified, but looks to be a term GPA.
For 2009-2015,
Spring term, method unspecified, but the only way itŐs
consistent with earlier numbers (and consistent with the corresponding Fall
numbers for those years) is if itŐs a cumulative GPA and as such was adjusted
upward by 0.12.
