A G.P.A. is determined by letter grades. Although different schools may use slightly different formulas for calculating a student’s G.P.A., all formulas are based on the sort of scale to the left. Imagine that these are your grades for the  \nquarter:  \nAlgebra I World History English I Physical Education General Art Earth Science  \nA  \nB  \nB  \nC  \nB+  \nA-  \nWhat is the G.P.A. for these grades? All you need to do is find the grade-point value for each course and average these grade-point values.  \nAlgebra I  \nWorld History English I Physical Education General Art Earth Science  \nA  \nB  \nB  \nC  \nB+  \nA-  \n4.0  \n3.0  \n2.7  \n2.0  \n3.3  \n3.7  \n4.0 + 3.0 + 2.7 + 2.0 + 3.3 + 3.7 = 18.7 ÷ 6 = 3.12  \nThe G.P.A. for this set of grades is 3.12, which equates to a “B”average for the quarter.  \nMost schools base the semester grade on two quarters and an exam.  \nQuarter 1 = 2/5 (40%) Quarter 2 = 2/5 (40%) Exam = 1/5 (20%)  \nTo calculate the semester G.P.A., you add together the exam G.P.A. with double each quarter G.P.A., then find the average.  \nQuarter 1 = 3.12 Quarter 2 = 3.5 Exam = 3.8  \n3.12 + 3.12 + 3.5 + 3.5 + 3.8 = 17.04 ÷ 5 = 3.41  \nFor the above grades, the student’s [semester G.P.A. is](semester G.P.A. is) 3.41, a “B+” average.  \nNotes: 1. Many schools give “weighted grades” to honors courses. When this is done, the grade-point value for an honors course is increased by one. For example, a “B” in Honors English is worth  \n4.0 rather than 3.0. This is how some honors students are able to have a G.P.A. higher than 4.0.  \n2. The standard cut-off for “honor roll” is a G.P.A. of 3.5.  \n3. Universities award “Latin honors” of cum laude for a G.P.A. of at least 3.5, magna cum laude for a G.P.A ofat least 3.7, and summa cum laude for a G.P.A. of at least 3.9.
