Your GPA (Grade Point Average) on the 4.0 scale is the credit-weighted average of your grade points: A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0 and F = 0, with plus and minus grades in between. It is used by US and Canadian colleges, high schools and many universities worldwide.

Try this example →Multiply each course's grade points by its credit hours, add them up and divide by the total credit hours. An A (4.0) in a 3-credit course and a B (3.0) in a 4-credit course give (12 + 12) ÷ 7 = 3.43.
3.0 (a B average) is good, 3.5 and above is very good and often needed for honours, scholarships and competitive graduate programmes.
Unweighted GPA uses the plain 4.0 scale. Weighted GPA (in US high schools) adds points for honours or AP courses, so it can exceed 4.0. This calculator gives unweighted GPA.
