  1. Grade points × credits

    3.7×3+3.3×4+4×3+2×2=40.33.7 \times 3 + 3.3 \times 4 + 4 \times 3 + 2 \times 2 = 40.3

    Points per grade from the University of Michigan LSA scale (A+ = 4.0).

  2. Divide by total credits

Acerca de GPA calculator

GPA is a credit-weighted average. Each course's grade points (A = 4.0, A− = 3.7, B+ = 3.3 and so on down to D− = 0.7 and F = 0 on the University of Michigan LSA scale) are multiplied by its credits, added up and divided by the total credits.

The default four courses (A− for 3 credits, B+ for 4, A for 3 and C for 2) earn 40.3 grade points over 12 credits, a GPA of 3.36. Two other modes convert a percentage to the 4.0 scale with the College Board's table (88% is a B, worth 3.0) and a 10-point CGPA to a percentage with CBSE's rule of 9.5 × CGPA.

Schools differ: some count A+ as 4.3 (a switch under More options), some add weight for honors and AP courses, and many universities publish their own CGPA formula. Check the key on your transcript before quoting the number.

Preguntas

How do you calculate GPA?

Multiply each course's grade points by its credits, add the products and divide by the total credits. A− (3.7) for 3 credits, B+ (3.3) for 4, A (4.0) for 3 and C (2.0) for 2 give 11.1 + 13.2 + 12 + 4 = 40.3 points over 12 credits, a GPA of 3.36. Each course counts in proportion to its credits.

What letter grade is a 3.5 GPA?

A 3.5 sits halfway between a B+ (3.3) and an A− (3.7) on the plus/minus scale, so it is roughly an A−/B+ average: equal credits of A− and B+ average exactly 3.5. On the College Board's table without plus or minus grades, it falls between a B (3.0) and an A (4.0).

How do you convert a percentage to a 4.0 GPA?

Use your school's own table where there is one. The College Board's general table gives 90–100% = A = 4.0, 80–89% = B = 3.0, 70–79% = C = 2.0, 66–69% = D = 1.0 and below 65% = F = 0.0, so 88% converts to 3.0. It has no plus or minus steps, so it is coarser than a transcript GPA.

How do you convert CGPA to percentage?

For CBSE results, multiply the CGPA by 9.5. CBSE Circular 24 of 28 May 2010 gives the overall indicative percentage of marks as 9.5 × CGPA, so a CGPA of 8.2 is about 77.9% and 9.0 is 85.5%. Universities often set their own formula, so check the rule printed on your marksheet or in the university's regulations.

Is an A+ worth 4.0 or 4.3?

It depends on the school. The University of Michigan's College of Literature, Science, and the Arts counts A+ as 4.0, the same as an A, while other schools award 4.3. Switch on "Count A+ as 4.3" to compare: an A+ and a B in two 3-credit courses average 3.5 under the first rule and 3.65 under the second.

¿Qué precisión tiene «GPA calculator»?

La precisión depende de tus datos y de los supuestos del método. El cálculo decimal usa 50 cifras significativas, pero las estimaciones, los métodos numéricos y los datos de origen pueden ser menos precisos; el redondeo mostrado no elimina esos límites. Ejemplos resueltos comprobados con fuentes independientes: 8. Por ejemplo, «Four courses» se comprueba con Python decimal with U-M LSA points: (3.7×3 + 3.3×4 + 4×3 + 2×2)/12 = 40.3/12.
