Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions and answers about this tool

GPA Calculator FAQ

What is GPA and how is it calculated?

GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated by multiplying each course's grade points by its credit hours, summing all these values, and dividing by the total credit hours. Formula: GPA = (Sum of Grade Points × Credits) ÷ Total Credits.

What's the difference between GPA and CGPA?

GPA typically refers to your grade point average for a single semester, while CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is your average across all semesters. This calculator can be used for both by entering all your courses.

What is a good GPA?

On a 4.0 scale: 3.5-4.0 is excellent, 3.0-3.4 is good, 2.5-2.9 is average. On a 10.0 scale: 8.5-10 is outstanding, 7.0-8.4 is good, 6.0-6.9 is average. Requirements vary by institution.

Can I calculate GPA for different semesters?

Yes! Add all courses from a specific semester to calculate that semester's GPA. To calculate cumulative GPA, include courses from all semesters you want to average.

How do weighted and unweighted GPAs differ?

This calculator computes weighted GPA based on credit hours. Each course contributes to your GPA proportionally to its credit hours. Courses with more credits have a greater impact on your overall GPA.

What if my school uses a different grading scale?

This calculator supports the most common 4.0 and 10.0 scales. If your school uses a different scale, try to map your grades to the closest equivalent in our system.
