<p>hey does anybody know how to convert a % out of 100 to the 4.0 system? I have a 98 average so if anybody knows what that is out of 4 that would be great thanksss</p>

2

<p>o_O
like a 3.95??</p>

3

<p>.98*4=3.92</p>

4

<p>98 = 4.0</p>

<p>95+ = 4.0, thats y. Its not based AT ALL on the (percent out of 100)/4 thing. It just is coincidentally able to become like that.</p>

<p>The reason 95+ is 4.0 is because colleges dont give a crap if u got a 95 (A) or a 100 (A). To them its all the same.</p>

<p>I have the same GPA and my counselor told me that converts to a 4.0. It's not just a basic proportion where 98/100 = X/4.0. It's like Root said, anything pretty much above a 95 is considered a 4.0.</p>

6

<p>isnt that a 3.92?....just divide ur grade out of 100 by 25.</p>

<p>^Pay attention to the previous threads. At the overwhelming majority of schools, that would be a 4.0, assuming that you have all A's. If you have an A- that changes things slightly. Individual grades are given more weight in the 4.0 scale, and it's not just averaging things together.</p>

<p>4.0. </p>

<p>MOST go:
100-90 = 4.0
89-80 = 3.0
79-70 = 2.0
69-60 = 1.0
Below 60... well you get the picture. </p>

<p>Most colleges rework your grades to get rid of the pluses and minuses so 90.0 is the same to them as 100.</p>

9

<p>At my school no way is a 90 a 4.0. 95 + is the 4.0 </p>

<p>3.5 is a 90 for us,</p>

10

<p>Well, I have a 96.84 and my counselor converted it to a 4.68. I was wrong. It wasn't a 4.0.</p>

11

<p>IS the a big Difference between an A- and and A. Let's just say I;ve had wuite a few A-'s..</p>

12

<p>so i guess it really depends on the school? theres no like official conversion chart?</p>

13

<p>At my school</p>

<p>94+ = 4.0 (A)
93.9-90 = 3.7 (A-)
89.9-87 = 3.5 (B+)
86.9-83=3.0 (B)
82.9-80=2.7 (B-)
79.9-77=2.5 (C+)
76.9-73=2.0 (C)
72.9-70=1.7 (C-)</p>

<p>LOL for a second I thought the title said "GPA Conversations."</p>

<p>That opened my eyes wider o_o</p>

15

<p>Yes, it depends on the school. Mine converts GPA differently. Ask your conselor to convert it for you.</p>
