What counts toward your high school GPA

Most high schools calculate GPA the same way colleges do — quality points (grade value × credits) divided by total credits — but many also report a second, weighted number that rewards harder course loads. Use the level dropdown on each row above to mark Honors or AP/IB courses; the calculator handles both scales at once so you don't need two tools.

Regular

Standard 4.0 scale, no bonus.

Honors

+0.5 grade points on a passing grade.

AP / IB / Dual Enrollment

+1.0 grade points on a passing grade.

These bonus values are common conventions, not universal rules — check your school's official grading policy if your transcript needs to match exactly.

Frequently asked questions

List each course with its letter grade and credit hours, multiply each grade's point value by its credits, add those quality points together, then divide by total credits. Add a course-level bonus for Honors or AP classes if your school reports a weighted GPA.

A 3.7 GPA on the standard scale corresponds to an A- average — it means your grades are mostly A's and A-'s, not a straight B average (which would be closer to 3.0).

A 2.7 sits in the B-/C+ range — below average for competitive college admissions but generally fine for graduation and many state schools. "Bad" depends heavily on your target schools' typical admitted GPA.

Not exactly — a 3.0 GPA corresponds to a straight-B average, which on most schools' percentage scales is closer to 80–87%, not 75%. The exact percentage-to-GPA mapping varies by school.
