WHat's my GPA?!

<p>Okay, so my UW GPA on a 100-point scale is 94.5<br>
weighted, it's 96.15</p>

<p>can some cool kid please tell me what these both would be on a 4-point scale?</p>

<p>I'm just wondering what is preventing you from doing this conversion yourself?</p>

<p>well.. becuase i dont know what a 4.0 is. is a 4.0 a 100? or is 4.0 a 95?</p>

<p>And it depends...I had a higher GPA than you (96.7) but I got a B once, so I don't have a 4.0 UW. You'd have to know all your grades to do it. And why don't you do it yourself?? Or just order a transcript if you can't do it.</p>

<p>And a 4.0 is straight As</p>

<p>okay.. so what is my gpa?</p>

<p>Uw=3.78
W=3.846</p>

<p>X/100*4=4.0 GPA</p>

<p>That's how our school does it if the application requires a GPA on the 4.0 scale.</p>

<p>Your weighted GPA is 3.85</p>

<p>But.... that's impossible to have a 4.0 uw. getting a 100 in every single class ? come on now. </p>

<p>in my school, an A is a 95-97. We consider that a 4.0. A 98-100 is an A+, and a 4.33. </p>

<p>So is my school messed up or something?</p>

<p>Why would your school be messed up?</p>

<p>That's why I don't like it when they ask for 4.0 GPAs. It's useless.</p>

<p>I think any school that uses 100-point scale GPA system is messed up.</p>

<p>andddd my transcript only gives my weighted gpa. which i already know.</p>

<p>so if 4.0 is straight A's... then what is straight A+'s?</p>

<p>There is no A+, just like how there is no F-.</p>

<p>no no. a 100 point scale gives you a completely accurate representation. It makes much more sense. </p>

<p>and in your guys' schools, is an A 90-100?</p>

<p>argh mine is lame and its 93-100 is an A.</p>

<p>Ok I'm really getting bored of theze threads of gpa conversion can a mod just sticky a conversion chart because it seems we get a thread like this weekly.</p>

<p>GPA means almost nothing in college admissions for just this specific reason. Every school tweaks the system in some odd way. The most important thing is class rank or percentile. No matter how screwed up the scale is, showing how you stand in your class is much more distinguishable than a number or percentage.</p>

<p>A 100 point scale gives a more precise representation--not necessarily a more accurate one.</p>

<p>exotic, gimme the points you got for all of your classes, not just the cumulative.</p>

<p>Only then we can calculate the gpa for you.</p>
