<p>I'm wishing to calculate, on my own, as a junior, my unweighted GPA. I was wondering, do A-'s, A's, and A+'s have different values? According to my school's guidelines for computation, an A is an A is an A. How does it work for college admissions?</p>
<p>There is no standard way to do this. From what you said about your high school, an A=4, B=3, C=2, ... and they ignore the pluses and minuses. There are different schemes to handle + and -'s where B+ = 3.3 and B- = 2.7 and C+=2.3. Some schools have A+'s and others don't (which seems kinda unfair).</p>
<p>Does anyone know how colleges compute a GPA for schools that give grades on a 0 to 100 basis? In our area, that is how public and private schools grade. I assume they look at individual grades and assign 4, 3, 2 1, 0 or maybe 4, 3.7, 3.3,.... but I have never been able to find out.</p>
<p>So GPAs in our area are numbers like 98.7, 87.6 or 101.2 (if weights are used for honors or AP classes).</p>
