How It Works
The GPA Calculator uses a simple formula to determine your Grade Point Average (GPA):
GPA = (Sum of (Grade Points × Credit Hours)) ÷ Total Credit Hours
Here's how it breaks down:
- For each course, multiply the grade points (A = 4.0, B = 3.0, etc.) by the credit hours.
- Add up all these values to get the total quality points.
- Divide the total quality points by the total number of credit hours to get your GPA.
Example Calculations
| Course Name | Credit Hours | Grade | Grade Points | Quality Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 3 | A | 4.0 | 12.0 |
| History | 2 | B | 3.0 | 6.0 |
| Science | 4 | C | 2.0 | 8.0 |
| Total | 9 | - | - | 26.0 |
In this example, the GPA would be 26.0 ÷ 9 = 2.89.
