<p>I'm international and not familiar with GPA.</p>

<p>How do you calculate your gpa when the school grades you from 0-100 and when it comes to letters but no + or -?</p>

<p>I'm not sure of the 0-100 you're talking about but for letters:</p>

<p>A = 4
B = 3
C = 2
D = 1
F = 0</p>

<p>On a 4 point scale</p>

<p>If there is no + or - than it is the table above</p>

<p>Example: you take 3 classes, of equivilent value, and recieve A, A, B</p>

<p>4 + 4 + 3 = 11 / 3 = 3.67GPA</p>

<p>Here is a +/- table:</p>

<pre><code>* A+ 4.00

  • A 4.00
  • A- 3.67
  • B+ 3.33
  • B 3.00
  • B- 2.67
  • C+ 2.33
  • C 2.00
  • C- 1.67
  • D+ 1.33
  • D 1.00
  • D- 0.67
  • F 0.00 </code></pre>

<p>So getting a B would hurt a lot. Is it better to go to a school with +/- instead? How is the table for +/-?</p>

<p>its not really that simple. you have to take class credits into account. So say you get an A in a 3 credit course, a B in a 4 credit course, and another A in a 4 credit course. You would have to do 4.0<em>3+3.0</em>4+4.0*4=40 then divide that by the number of credit hours you take (in this case 11), so 40/11=3.636</p>
