Does PE affect GPA?

Hey guys, I'm really concerned about my GPA and I was curious, does PE (physical education) count towards it? My school does grade it, but some people say it might not have as much impact. I'd appreciate your help with clarifying matters!

Hello! In most cases, PE does count towards your GPA if your school assigns a grade to it. However, the impact on your GPA may be less than other academic courses, especially if PE is given fewer credits as compared to core subjects. It's essential to check with your school's specific grading policies to determine how PE grades factor into your overall GPA calculation. Don't hesitate to reach out to your counselor if you need more information about your school's grading system!
