Example
If a student studies 4 courses of 3 credit hours each and gets A, B+, B and A-, the calculator converts that grades into grade points, apply the credit hours and gives one semester GPA. This kind of example lets you check that you’re entering values correctly. If your result looks strange, go back and check each field again to ensure you have put units, dates, percentages and amounts in the right boxes.
Practical tip: To get the most accurate results, use the same grading scale your university uses. Some universities treat A+ and A differently, but others count both as 4.00. This tool is best used within the framework of a larger decision process.
