<p>After seeing everyone post their gpas and after seeing USC mention that they take into consideration A- and A+ type grades, I am wondering how your school calculates your gpa. My school has it set up where a 95+ = 4.0, 94 = 3.9, 90 = 3.5, 80= 2.5, etc etc. Is that how your school is or is it the standard A = 4, B = 3?</p>
<p>A 4.0
A- 3.7
B+ 3.3
B 3.0
ETC.</p>
<p>This is at OSU.</p>
<p>Hm that’s odd. I don’t really get how that works out honestly. So an A would equal a 100-93?</p>
<p>Long32=3 has it right. That’s how most universities that take +/- calculate grades.</p>
<p>It all depends on the school and to break it down even further, your syllabus for each course. Certain professors change it around with the numbers and then certain professors have grade bans.</p>
<p>For instance, take my POL213 course and ACC212 course.
To receive an A in ACC212, you need a 93-100. However for POL213, you need a 94-100. And then certain professors grade ban, which means, you can have a 90 and get a B+ depending on the other averages in the classes. It’s really unfair but one way certain schools degrade.</p>
<p>it is true that a lot of times teachers change it up but long32 has the usual college listed grading scale</p>
<p>How is GPA calculated for International Students?</p>
<p>It is so odd to me that it varies so much from university to university. I like the way your schools calculate your gpas, it definitely brings my gpa up a bit. This is very good to know in terms of looking at everyones stats. Thanks guys!</p>
