<p>ok so,
if u take a 3 unit course does the gpa compute it differently? like does the amount of units the class is affect ur gpa?
say i have :
A in 3unit class
A- in 4 unit
A in 4 unit</p>
<p>wat would my gpa be??</p>
<p>The units dont make a difference in the GP's youre allotted. Youd have around a 3.9 with that setup..</p>
<p>Your gpa would be (4<em>3+3.7</em>4+4*4)/(3+4+4)=3.89. The formula is </p>
<h1>grade points/# units</h1>
<p>A 3 unit class can have a possible 4<em>3=12 grade points and a 4 unit class can have a possible 4</em>4=16 grade points</p>
<p>Wait, bj, you just confused the heck out of me. So am I wrong and units do make a difference? Please explain..</p>
<p>GPA = Total Grade Points from all classes / Total Units Taken</p>
<p>Grade Points for a class = (Grade * Units)</p>
<p>With 4 being an A, 3.7 being an A-, etc.</p>
<p>So UNITS DO make a difference. A class with a larger amount of units is worth more when calculating GPA. </p>
<p>So total grade points from all classes = (4<em>3) + (3.7</em>4) + (4*4) = 42.8</p>
<p>Divide that by the total units = ( 4 + 3 + 4) = 11</p>
<p>42.8/11 = 3.89.</p>
<p>Let me have a try at this. If you had two classes one was four units and the other was two units. and you got an A and a C in your classes, it would make a difference which one had the A and which one had the C.</p>
<p>[(4.0 x 4) + (2.0 x 2)] divided by 6 = 3.0
[(4.0 x 2) + (2.0 x 4)] divided by 6 = 2.6
Multiply the grade times the number of hours for each class and total them then divide by the number of hours.</p>
<p>Yup. You got it right Mr. B. That's why those science classes with labs that come out to 5 units are extremely important.</p>
