黑料不打烊 asks for your unweighted GPA, but I suggest trying both just to see your highest chances and lowest chances with both GPAs.

I would say so because the weighted ones are usually recalculated by universities in the admissions process. The unweighted one would be most accurate to use with the Chancing Simulator.

I feel like unweighted would be the most accurate, but keep in mind schools do take both into consideration, if you are taking rigorous classes and maybe getting a B instead of an A, that's okay because you are trying your hardest in a rigorous class. Therefore, if you use unweighted your percentages for different schools may be a little lower than what they actually would be.
