What is GPA and Why Calculate It?

GPA (Grade Point Average) is a numerical representation of your academic performance. It's calculated by averaging the grade points you earn in each class, weighted by credit hours. Most schools use a 4.0 scale, where A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0, D=1.0, and F=0.0.

Our free GPA calculator helps you track your academic progress, plan for future semesters, and understand what grades you need to achieve your target GPA. Whether you're a college student or in high school, calculating your GPA is essential for:

  • College admissions and scholarship applications
  • Maintaining academic standing and eligibility
  • Setting academic goals and tracking progress
  • Understanding how individual courses impact your overall GPA
  • Planning course loads and difficulty levels
