UHB is a clear illustration of why reducing a university to a single formula produces wrong answers: a male humanities applicant's high school GPA carries no weight at all, while a female applicant on the same track has hers weighted at thirty percent. Select gender and track before reading any number.

Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate a UHB weighted score?
Select your track and gender in the calculator above first, because the weights differ. Health and engineering use 30/30/40; humanities, business and diploma differ between male and female applicants.
Why is the high school GPA excluded for male humanities applicants?
That is how the university publishes its criteria: 50% GAT and 50% SAAT for male applicants in humanities, business administration and diploma programmes, with no GPA weight. We display the formula as published and link its source.
What is the formula for female humanities applicants at UHB?
30% GPA + 40% GAT + 30% SAAT. Note that the GAT weight here (40%) is higher than in the health and engineering tracks (30%).
Do diploma programmes use a different formula?
Within humanities and business administration, diploma programmes follow the same published weights for those tracks, split by gender. Select them in the formula list to see the numbers.
Which UHB track weights the GAT most heavily?
Humanities, business administration and diploma for male applicants, where the GAT is a full half of the score (50%). In practice, each GAT mark there is worth twice what it is worth on a 25% weighting.
What GAT score do I need to reach 85%?
Enter your other results and an 85% target in the "GAT score you need" tool after selecting your track and gender. If your formula weights the GAT at 50%, every point you need in the final score costs two GAT points.
Does the university have an official calculator?
Yes, UHB provides a weighted score calculator on its admission portal, linked on this page. Where results differ, the official source is authoritative.
