How to use
- 1Choose your scale: 4.0 unweighted or 5.0 weighted (Honors +0.5, AP/IB +1.0).
- 2Add courses with grade (A–F) and credit hours. Use Honors/AP type when weighted.
- 3See semester GPA, total quality points and credits instantly. Switch to Cumulative to add prior GPA.
Formula
GPA = Σ (grade point × credits) / Σ creditsEach course contributes quality points = grade point × credits. Weighted GPA adds honors/AP bonuses before averaging. Cumulative GPA = (prior QP + current QP) / (prior credits + current credits).
Examples
Semester GPA — A (3cr), B+ (3cr), B (4cr)
QP: 12 + 9.9 + 12 = 33.9, Credits 10 → 3.39
GPA 3.39 • 33.9 QP / 10cr
Weighted — A Honors (3cr) + A AP (3cr) + B Standard (3cr)
Honors 4.5 + AP 5.0 + 3.0 → 37.5 / 9 = 4.17
Weighted GPA 4.17
Frequently asked questions
What is a good GPA?
Unweighted: 3.0 is B, 3.5+ is strong for many colleges. Weighted GPAs can exceed 4.0 due to honors/AP bonuses.
Do P/NP or W grades count?
No — Pass/No-Pass, Withdrawn, Incomplete and Audit grades are excluded from GPA. Only letter grades with credits count.
How is cumulative GPA different?
Cumulative combines prior totals with current term. It is not the average of semester GPAs — you must weight by credits.
