New GPA Calculator Online
We have updated the GPA calculator, you can find it here. There are two versions, one for Excel 97-2003 and another for Excel 2007.
Please read the following to better understand your report card.
There are three types of grades earned by students:
Percentages
This is the grade earned for a class by a student during each of the four quarters.
Letter Grade
All four quarter percentages and the exam are converted to a letter grade (A, B+, B, B-, etc.).
The exam only has a letter grade value. The percentage is not reported.
GPA
The quarter grades and exam grades are converted to a 4-point scale (4.0 = perfect GPA). These values on the 4-point scale are used to determine semester averages. When the semester and final grades are calculated back to a letter grade, the percentage is not a factor, only the 4-point scale value.
The structure of the 4-point scale:
