Grade to GPA Converter
About Grade to GPA Converter
The Grade to GPA Converter helps students convert letter grades (A+, A, B+, etc.) into Grade Point Average (GPA) on a 4-point scale. It’s widely used by students applying to international universities or comparing academic performance across grading systems.
Formula (Simple Explanation)›
GPA = (Total Grade Points Earned ÷ Total Courses)
Each grade corresponds to a numerical value on a 4-point scale (for example: A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0). The GPA is the average of these points across all subjects.
Example:
Input: Grades: A, B+, A-, B
Output: Average grade point = (4.0 + 3.3 + 3.7 + 3.0) ÷ 4 = 3.5 GPA
Steps to Use:
- Select or enter your grades for each subject.
- Each grade automatically converts to its grade point value (A = 4.0, B = 3.0, etc.).
- Click 'Calculate' to find your GPA on a 4-point scale.
- Use the result for university applications or self-assessment.
