📊 Understanding GPA Calculation
GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated by converting each grade to its numerical value (A = 4.0, B = 3.0, etc.), multiplying by the credit hours for that course, summing all these values, and dividing by the total credit hours.
Example: If you get an A (4.0) in a 3-credit course and a B (3.0) in a 4-credit course:
(4.0 × 3 + 3.0 × 4) / (3 + 4) = 3.43 GPA
📝 Common Questions
- Q: What's the difference between semester and cumulative GPA?
A: Semester GPA calculates only courses from one term, while cumulative GPA includes all courses from all semesters. - Q: How are +/- grades calculated?
A: A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B- = 2.7, etc. See the grade scale below for complete values. - Q: Can I use this for weighted GPA?
A: This calculator uses standard 4.0 scale. For weighted GPA (honors/AP classes), you would need to adjust the grade points accordingly.
