GPA Calculator

Calculate your Grade Point Average — supports 4.0 (US) and 10.0 scales

About the GPA Calculator

This calculator computes your cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) on both the 4.0 and 10.0 scales, weighted by credit hours for each subject. It supports the US letter-grade system (4.0 scale) as well as the percentage-based grading used by many Indian universities (10.0 scale), making it useful for students across different educational systems worldwide.

How to Use

  1. Select your GPA scale — 4.0 (US letter grades) or 10.0 (percentage-based).
  2. Enter each subject name, its grade or percentage score, and credit hours.
  3. Use "+ Add Subject" to include additional courses as needed.
  4. Click "Calculate GPA" to see your cumulative GPA, classification, and a grade breakdown chart.

Formula / Methodology

Weighted GPA = Σ(Grade Points × Credits) / Σ(Credits)

4.0 Scale: A/A+=4.0, A-=3.7, B+=3.3,
B=3.0, B-=2.7, C+=2.3, C=2.0...

10.0 Scale (% → points):
90%+=10, 80–89%=9, 70–79%=8,
60–69%=7, 50–59%=6, 40–49%=5

Credit-weighted GPA gives higher-credit subjects proportionally more influence on your final average, accurately reflecting the relative workload and importance of each course in your overall academic performance.

Understanding Your Results

Cumulative GPA (4.0) The standard US and international GPA scale. Most graduate programmes and employers use 3.0+ as a benchmark for competitive candidacy, with 3.7+ indicating distinction-level performance.
Cumulative GPA (10.0) Widely used by Indian universities (VTU, Anna University, JNTU, etc.). A score of 7.5+ typically corresponds to First Class, and 9.0+ to Distinction, though thresholds vary by institution.
Classification Distinction (≥3.7/4.0 or ≥9.0/10.0), First Class (3.0+ or 7.5+), Second Class (2.0+ or 6.0+), Pass (1.0+ or 5.0+). Classifications reflect typical academic honour categorisations.

Verify Your Institution's Grading Policy

GPA scales, grade point assignments, and classification thresholds vary significantly across institutions and countries. Some universities use 5.0, 7.0, or 9.0 scales, and letter-grade cutoffs may differ from those shown here. Always cross-reference your calculated GPA against your institution's official grading policy — particularly when applying to graduate programmes or submitting academic transcripts.
