How gpa is calculated
Compute a weighted grade-point average from course grades and credit weights. Enter one grade point per course and its credit value; total quality points are divided by total credits. This calculator does not assume a country’s grading scale, so translate grades to your institution’s scale first. A 3-credit course at 4.0 and a 1-credit course at 3.0 produce (12+3)/4 = 3.75. The calculation validates each input and keeps its stated units explicit. Yes, credits weight each course; equal weighting is appropriate only when course credits are equal. This is an estimate for the stated assumptions; confirm measurements and any applicable professional or local standards before relying on it.
GPA = Σ(grade points × credits) ÷ Σ creditsA 3-credit course at 4.0 and a 1-credit course at 3.0 produce (12+3)/4 = 3.75.
Assumptions & useful context
