The old family recipe for figuring out your G.P.A.

• • 1. CREDIT VALUE OF THE ATTEMPTED COURSE MULTIPLIED BY THE QUALITY POINT VALUE FOR THE GRADE RECEIVED = QUALITY PTS.
  • 2. FIND THE SUM OF ALL QUALITY POINTS
  • 3. DIVIDE THE TOTAL QUALITY POINTS BY THE TOTAL CREDITS ATTEMPTED

So let’s do an example: Algebra I CCP final grade is B+ so that’s 3.3 Quality Points, African Asian Accelerated Honors final grade is a B- so that’s 3.24 Quality Points and Health Fitness final grade is an A so that’s 4.0 quality points.

11 total quality points divided by 3 credits attempted computes to a G.P.A. of 3.51 (rounded)
