Common questions
- What is the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?
- Unweighted GPA caps at 4.0 and treats every course the same. Weighted GPA adds a bump for harder classes — commonly +0.5 for Honors and +1.0 for AP or IB — so it can reach 5.0. Mark each course type above and the calculator applies the bump for you.
- How do I convert letter grades to the 4.0 scale?
- The standard US table: A = 4.0, A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, B- = 2.7, C+ = 2.3, C = 2.0, C- = 1.7, D+ = 1.3, D = 1.0, D- = 0.7, F = 0. Some schools shift the cutoffs slightly — when in doubt, your syllabus or registrar wins.
- Is an A+ worth 4.0 or 4.3?
- Most US schools cap the A+ at 4.0, which is this calculator’s default. Some award 4.3 — if yours does, flip the toggle above the calculate button.
- How do credits affect my GPA?
- GPA is a credit-weighted average: each grade is multiplied by the course’s credits before averaging. A 4-credit course moves your GPA four times as much as a 1-credit one — which is why one heavy course can carry, or sink, a semester.
- Do pass/fail courses count toward GPA?
- Usually not — a P earns credits but carries no grade points, so it neither helps nor hurts your GPA. A fail often does count as an F. Leave pass/fail courses out of the rows above unless your school treats them differently.
