How to Use the GPA Calculator
A Grade Point Average (GPA) is a numerical representation of your academic performance, calculated by averaging the grade points you earn in your courses, weighted by the number of credit hours. Our GPA calculator supports both 4.0 and 5.0 scales, making it suitable for high school and college students alike. Simply select your grading scale, enter each course name with its corresponding credit hours and letter grade, then click calculate to see your cumulative GPA, total credits earned, and quality points.
📚 Example Calculation:
Student taking 4 courses on a 4.0 scale:
| Course | Credit Hours | Grade | Grade Points | Quality Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 3 | A (4.0) | 4.0 | 12.0 |
| English | 4 | B+ (3.3) | 3.3 | 13.2 |
| Science | 3 | A- (3.7) | 3.7 | 11.1 |
| History | 2 | B (3.0) | 3.0 | 6.0 |
Calculation: Total Quality Points (42.3) ÷ Total Credit Hours (12) = GPA of 3.53
Understanding your GPA is crucial for academic planning, scholarship eligibility, and college admissions. The calculator automatically converts letter grades to their numerical equivalents and weights them by credit hours to provide an accurate cumulative GPA. Use this tool regularly throughout the semester to track your academic progress and identify areas where you might need to focus more effort. Remember that different institutions may use slightly different grading scales, so always verify with your school's specific grade point values.
