Frequently Asked Questions
What is GPA?
GPA stands for Grade Point Average. It's a numerical representation of your academic performance, calculated by averaging the grade points you've earned in your courses, weighted by credit hours.
What's the difference between 4.0 and 10.0 scales?
The 4.0 scale is commonly used in the United States, where 4.0 is the highest GPA. The 10.0 scale is used in many other countries, including India, where 10.0 is the highest GPA.
Can I enter percentage grades?
Yes! You can enter grades as either letter grades (A, B+, etc.) or as percentages (85, 92, etc.). The calculator will automatically convert them to grade points.
How do credit hours affect my GPA?
Credit hours weight each course's contribution to your GPA. A 4-credit course with an A will have more impact on your GPA than a 2-credit course with an A.
