Formula Used

GPA = Σ (Course Grade Points × Credit Hours) / Σ Total Credit Hours

Each letter grade corresponds to a standardized grade point value (A = 4.0, A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, B- = 2.7, C+ = 2.3, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0.0). Multiply each grade point by its course credit hours and divide the total sum by the aggregate credit hours.

Example Calculation Walkthrough

Course 1 (4 credits, Grade A = 4.0): 16 quality points. Course 2 (3 credits, Grade B+ = 3.3): 9.9 quality points. Course 3 (3 credits, Grade A- = 3.7): 11.1 quality points. Total quality points = 37.0. Total credits = 10. GPA = 37.0 / 10 = 3.70.

Understanding GPA Calculator in Academic Evaluation

The 4.0 scale Grade Point Average is the most ubiquitous grading system in American, Canadian, and European universities. Understanding how individual classes impact your overall GPA allows you to prioritize study hours effectively, especially for courses carrying 4 or 5 credits that heavily sway the weighted average.
