College GPA?

<p>I was talking to my friends one day and I realized none of us exactly knows how our GPAs are determined..</p>

<p>like what does A+ equal? 4.0? 4.5? or all A's just equal = 4? B+= 3.0??</p>

<p>Help me out please.... THank you</p>

<p>usc doesn't assign A+ grades. Any letter can have + or -, except for A+, F+, and F- (boy, I would sure feel bad if I got a F- in a class :) )</p>

<p>As for the rest, it's A = 4.0, A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3, B = 3.0, etc.</p>

<p>Schools which have A+ grades, usually it counts the same as an A (4.0) and the + is just an extra "something" that the prof can give. I suppose some schools do give A+ = 4.3, though.</p>

<p>USC professors can/do give you an A+ grade in a class (I've gotten one or two) it's just that the official grade recorded can go no higher than A</p>

<p>A+ = 4.0
A = 4.0
A- = 3.7<br>
B+ = 3.3
B = 3.0 </p>

<p>and so on...</p>
