GPA Question

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>How can I convert my 95 to a 4.0-graded scale? Is it as easy as '95/25=3.8'?</p>

<p>How does your school's grading policy work? Just to give me an idea, I understand that Penn (SEAS) generally looks for 3.8+. What is that based on a 100-point scale? What is the general accepted GPA (out of 100)?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>where did you get 25?</p>

<p>its very simple. </p>

<p>4=A(93+, some schools have A+which is 98-100)
3.7=A-(90-92)
3.3=B+(87-89)
3.0=B (83-86)
and it continues down</p>

<p>F=60 and below=0 pts</p>

<p>I set up a proportion…</p>

<p>95/100 = x/4</p>

<p>Either cross-multiply or divide 95 by 25 (what i did)…so what would a 95 be?</p>

<p>you never took a class pass fail? like you had equal # of credits each year?</p>

<p>edit: thats the main reason for the 4.0 scale i think. cuz once you take a class p/f or a class has a higher credit weight(not honors weight)</p>

<p>my school has no weight and pass/fail don’t count toward gpa… :(</p>
