Looking for a gpa calculator with letter grades and credits? This free tool gives you semester GPA from letter grades and credit hours. Just enter your numbers and press Calculate — results are instant.
A GPA turns letter grades into numbers: A is worth 4.0 points, B is 3.0, C is 2.0, D is 1.0 and F is 0, with plus and minus grades worth a third of a point more or less. Each course's points are multiplied by its credit hours to get quality points; add up all the quality points and divide by the total credit hours, and that is the semester GPA. List your courses one per line as grade and credits, for example 'A, 3'.
Example: Courses: A, 3 credits · B+, 4 credits · A−, 3 credits · B, 3 credits
Semester GPA: 3.48
On the usual 4.0 scale: A is 4.0, B is 3.0, C is 2.0, D is 1.0 and F is 0. A plus adds 0.3 and a minus takes 0.3 away — so B+ is 3.3 and A− is 3.7. A+ counts as 4.0 here.
No. This calculator treats every course by its credit hours only. A weighted GPA gives extra points for honours or AP courses — if your school weights grades, the result here will be lower than your weighted GPA.
It depends on your school's policy: some replace the old grade, some average the two, and some count both. Enter the courses the way your school counts them.
