How GPA is calculated
Each class earns a grade point — 4.0 for an A, 3.0 for a B, and so on. Your unweighted GPA is the average of those grade points across all your classes. The weighted GPA adds extra points for the difficulty of AP and Honors classes — typically +1.0 for AP and +0.5 for Honors — so a strong student in challenging classes ends up with a weighted GPA above 4.0.
Weighted vs unweighted
Most colleges recalculate the GPA on your transcript using their own scale, so the exact number from this calculator may differ from what an admissions officer sees. The two-number view we show here matches what your school's transcript usually reports.
Tips
- Add every class on your transcript for the year, not just the core ones — electives count.
- Use letter grades; if your school uses + / − grades, the calculator handles those too.
- Mark only AP and Honors classes as such. "Pre-AP" or "Advanced" depend on your school's policy — check what counts.
