How to calculate your GPA
Your GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated by multiplying each course’s grade points by its credit hours, summing those totals, and dividing by the total number of credit hours. On the standard 4.0 scale, an A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, and F = 0.0.
For example, if you earn an A (4.0) in a 3-credit course and a B (3.0) in a 4-credit course, your GPA is: (4.0×3 + 3.0×4) ÷ (3+4) = 24 ÷ 7 = 3.43.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good GPA?
A GPA of 3.0 or above is generally considered good. A 3.5+ is excellent and puts you on the Dean’s List at most schools. Medical and law school applicants typically need a 3.5–3.9+.
What is the difference between weighted and unweighted GPA?
An unweighted GPA uses a standard 4.0 scale for all courses. A weighted GPA gives extra points for harder courses like AP or honors classes, so the scale can go above 4.0.
How do I raise my GPA?
Focus on high-credit courses, attend tutoring, and use tools like Chegg or Khan Academy for extra support. Retaking courses where you earned a C or below can also significantly boost your GPA.
What GPA do I need for grad school?
Most graduate programs require a minimum 3.0 GPA. Top programs at MIT, Harvard, or Stanford typically admit students with a 3.7+. Check each program’s specific requirements.
