Guide

How GPA is calculated

GPA is usually calculated by converting course grades into points, weighting them by credits and dividing by the total credits.

This gives a single score that summarizes academic performance across classes.

Example

Example use case

If two classes carry different credits, the higher-credit class has more impact on the final GPA. The calculator handles that weighting automatically.
