What's my unweighted GPA?

Applying to College

<p>I expect to have a 94%-100+% in every class I'm taking this school year, and my school's handbook says that you multiply an individual class's numerical grade by number of credits to find the quality points, add up all the quality points for all of your classes, and divide that sum by the number of credits attempted for the school year to find your unweighted GPA. I think that this number should be around a 95%, but I can't figure out how to convert it to the 4.0 scale. The handbook says that:</p>

<p>90-100 --> 4.0
80-89 --> 3.0
70-79 --> 2.0
60-69 --> 1.0
0-59 --> 0.0</p>

<p>But what about all the points in between? (3.4, 3.6, etc.) Will colleges look at my high school unweighted GPA the same way?
And do I have a 4.0 GPA or a 3.5 GPA?</p>

<p>If you have a 94-100 in every class then you have a 4.0. Each class gets a 4 times the number of credits in each class, divide by the number of total credits. A 3.5 would be 1/2 in the 80-89 range and 1/2 in the 94-100 range.</p>
