 How to Calculate a GPA



 

 

Every grade is worth points:

A=4     B=3     C=2     D=1     F=0

 

Every class has credit hours attached.  Those credit hours determine how much influence each class will have on your overall grade. 

 

To determine your GPA follow the chart below.  (Multiply your points for grades by your credit hours to determine your quality points for each class).
