GPA calculator
Add your classes to see your weighted and unweighted GPA. Honors and AP classes are counted the usual way.
Weighted adds 0.5 for honors and 1.0 for AP, IB and dual enrollment, up to 5.0. Your school’s scale may differ.
How this GPA is calculated
Each grade gets points on a 4.0 scale: A and A+ are 4.0, A− 3.7, B+ 3.3, B 3.0, and so on down to F at 0. Each class counts by its credits. For the weighted GPA, honors classes get 0.5 extra points and AP, IB and dual-enrollment classes get 1.0, up to 5.0.
Questions
What is the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?
Unweighted GPA treats every class the same on a 4.0 scale. Weighted GPA adds points for harder classes, so it can go above 4.0. This calculator adds 0.5 for honors and 1.0 for AP, IB and dual-enrollment classes, up to 5.0.
Which GPA do colleges use?
Many colleges recalculate GPA their own way, and most look at your transcript, not just the number. Report the GPA your high school gives you on applications. The AdmissionOdds chances calculator asks for your unweighted GPA because that is what colleges report in their Common Data Set.
Is an A+ worth 4.0 or 4.3?
Here an A+ counts as 4.0, the most common scale. Some high schools give 4.33; if yours does, your school’s GPA will be a little higher than this one.
