GPA Conversion!

<p>How does the GPA conversion work? As in, someone with a 50%/100% -- would they have a 2.0/4.0? That's just an example, I obviously don't have a 50% heh. </p>

<p>My counselor said he converted my GPA over to a 4.0 scale, but after looking around CC (for far too long) I'm not sure that he did it correctly.</p>

<p>Ended up with a 95.51 = 3.95
Any input?
Thanks!</p>

<p>I would personally set it up as:</p>

<p>95.51/100 = x/4.00</p>

<p>Then, 100x = 382.04</p>

<p>x (your 4.00 GPA) = 3.8204</p>

<p>But apparently he did something differently. Is your 4.0 or 95.51 GPA considered weighted? That could explain my discrepancy.</p>

<p>That makes sense how you did that.. But no, my GPA isn't weighted.</p>

<p>I'm so unbelievably confused. I heard somewhere that a 95 is ~4.0.</p>

<p>Well, a 95 would equal a 4.0 IF your school only converted to 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0. Some schools do that (i.e. they round to the nearest whole number, no decimal). However, that isn't what your counselor did, so I still can't see how he came up with that 3.95....... It seems so.... random! LOL But all the more power to you; that is a phenomenal GPA!</p>

<p>I have no idea how he did it either... He probably just picked something hhaa. I almost like a 3.95 more than a 4.0 -- it has character. =)</p>

<p>Thanks, SillBill. (I like your name)</p>

<p>4.0 == 95 and above usually, though not always. Generally...</p>

<p>A/A+== 4.0
A-== 3.66
B+== 3.33
B== 3.00
Etc.</p>

<p>I think a 3.95 would mean you have all A's and A+'s, and one A- on average each year.</p>

<p>You do not have to worry about converting. If your highschool uses a 100 point grading scale, that is what the colleges will look at.</p>
