- A− (4 cr), B+ (3), A (3), B (1): (14.8 + 9.9 + 12 + 3) ÷ 11 = 3.61.
Frequently asked questions
Are pass/fail courses included?
Usually not. Leave them out, since they earn credits but no grade points.
What is the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?
Weighted GPAs give extra points for honors or AP classes (often +0.5 or +1.0). This calculator gives the unweighted GPA.
