Frequently Asked Questions
- What is GPA?
- GPA stands for Grade Point Average. It's a numerical calculation of your average grade across all courses, typically on a 4.0 or 5.0 scale. It's used by schools to measure academic performance.
- What's the difference between 4.0 and 5.0 scale?
- The 4.0 scale is unweighted (A=4.0). The 5.0 scale is weighted, giving extra points for honors and AP classes (A=5.0 in advanced classes). Use the 5.0 scale if your school offers weighted grades.
- How do I calculate my cumulative GPA?
- Cumulative GPA includes all semesters. Add all your courses from all terms, and the calculator will show your overall GPA based on total credits and grade points earned.
- What grade is a 3.5 GPA?
- A 3.5 GPA is between a B+ and A-. It's considered a very good GPA and is competitive for most colleges and scholarships.
- Do all courses count equally in GPA?
- No. Courses are weighted by credit hours. A 4-credit course with an A affects your GPA more than a 1-credit course with an A. This calculator automatically accounts for credit weighting.
- Can I calculate my semester and cumulative GPA together?
- Yes! Add all courses from all semesters. The calculator will give you one overall GPA. To see just semester GPA, only enter courses from that semester.
