Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a GPA Calculator?

A GPA Calculator helps you figure out your Grade Point Average by taking all your course grades and credit hours. You enter your grades for each class along with how many credits that class is worth, and it does the math to give you a single GPA number that represents your overall academic performance.

How does GPA calculation work?

The calculator multiplies each course grade by its credit hours, adds up all those numbers, then divides by your total credit hours. So a 3-credit A course counts more toward your GPA than a 1-credit B course. Makes sense because harder classes usually have more credits.

What GPA scales does this calculator support?

It works with both the 4.0 scale (common in the US) and the 10.0 scale (used in many other countries). You can also enter letter grades like A, B, C or percentages, and the calculator converts them to the right scale automatically.

Can I calculate both semester and cumulative GPA?

Yes, you can do either. For semester GPA, just enter courses from one term. For cumulative GPA, include all courses from multiple semesters. Some students find it helpful to calculate both separately to see how each semester affects their overall average.

Is this GPA Calculator free?

Completely free, no strings attached. No account needed, no credit card, nothing. Use it as often as you want from your phone, laptop, or tablet. Calculate your GPA whenever you need to check where you stand academically.

Why do I need to enter credit hours?

Credit hours matter because they show how much weight each course carries. A 4-credit math class affects your GPA more than a 1-credit gym class. Without credit hours, all courses would count the same, which wouldn't accurately reflect your academic workload and performance.

How accurate is the GPA calculation?

The math is straightforward and accurate. However, some schools have special rules like dropping lowest grades, grade replacement policies, or weighted grades for honors courses. The calculator gives you the standard GPA, but check your school's specific policies for official transcripts.

Can I add or remove courses easily?

Yes, most GPA calculators let you add as many courses as you need and remove any you entered by mistake. You can play around with different scenarios too, like seeing how getting an A instead of a B in one class would change your overall GPA.

What if my school uses plus and minus grades?

Many schools distinguish between A, A-, B+, B, and so on. Good GPA calculators handle these variations. An A might be 4.0, A- could be 3.7, B+ around 3.3, and so on. The calculator should have these options or let you enter the exact grade point value.

Does it work on mobile devices?

Yes, works perfectly on phones and tablets. The layout adjusts to smaller screens so you can still enter all your courses and grades easily. Calculate your GPA between classes, in the library, or anywhere you have internet access.

Where can I find other student calculators?

The FileToConvert Advanced Calculators page has other tools students find useful. There are calculators for percentages, averages, and various other math problems that come up in coursework. Worth checking out if you need help with other calculations.

What's considered a good GPA?

On a 4.0 scale, anything above 3.0 is generally decent, 3.5+ is good, and 3.8+ is excellent. But this varies by major, school, and what you plan to do after graduation. Some graduate programs want 3.5 minimum, while others are more flexible if you have other strengths.
