The GPA (Grade Point Average) calculator is a useful tool for students to calculate their overall academic performance.
It takes into account the grades and credits for each course and provides a weighted average of the grades based on the letter grade system (A, B, C, etc.).
The GPA is a common metric used by schools, colleges, and universities to evaluate a student’s academic achievement.
How to Use the GPA Calculator
- For each course, select the letter grade you received from the “Course Grade” dropdown and enter the number of credits for that course in the “Credits” field.
- If you have more than one course, click the “Add Course” button to add additional course fields.
- Once you have entered the grades and credits for all your courses, click the “Calculate GPA” button.
- The calculator will display your calculated GPA based on the provided grades and credits (the numerical equivalents of each grade are listed after the calculator).
