GPA stands for Grade Point Average. How that average is figured or used, I don't know.
AnswerGPA is an acronym for Grade Point Average.It is used in high school to determine student rank. Colleges use it to determine if they want to allow students to attend their college. They may have a minimum GPA requirement for a student to be accepted. The better the GPA the better grades were in school.
It is figured by giving a score to each of the letter grades. A = 4, B = 3, C = 2, D = 1, and F = 0.
Example: A student has the following grades for one semester of school.
A, A, B, C, A, D, F . You would add the scores for each of the letters grades which would be 18 points and divide it by how many grades were given (in this . case 7). 18/7 = 2.57. The GPA for this particular semester is a 2.57.
Colleges like to see the higher GPA's like a 3.5 or better. A GPA of 4.0 would mean all A's.
GPA stands for Grade Point Average - it's a way to figure out how well you are doing academically overall while accounting for the relative difficulty and time investment of different classes.
You will need to have a list of all grades you have received, the number of credits each class was worth and your school's grading policy. Start by reviewing the grading policy, so that you know what each grade is worth numerically. A standard 4-point GPA scale with no +/- differential is typical, but there are many variations on this. Using the standard scale, an A is worth 4 points, a B is worth 3 points, a C is worth 2 points, a D is worth 1 point and an F is worth 0 points. Multiply the grade you received in the class (in points) by the number of credit hours; repeat for each class. Add up all these numbers, then divide by the number of credit hours you have taken. This will be your GPA.
In computing this average, the following numerical values
are assigned to each letter grade.
Grade Grade Numerical Value
A+ . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4
B+ . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.5
B+ . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3
C+ . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.5
C+ . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2
D+ . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.5
D+ . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1
F+ . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0
Numerical quality points are then determined by multiplying the above values by the number of credit hours which the course carries. For example, a three-credit hour course in which the student receives
a B represents 9 quality points earned. Academic average is determined by dividing the total number of quality points taken, whether passed or failed. The following table is an illustration of this computation: Grade & Quality

. . . . . 19 . . . . . . . . . . . . 41.5
Total credits taken 19
Total quality points earned 41.5
41.5 divided by 19 results in a 2.18 grade
point average.
Grade point average: the average score of all of your grades.
you take the numbers add them together and divide by the number of numbers added
To figure it you must simply average your grades in numerical format with four being A F being 0.
A=4
B=3
C=2
D=1
add all grades up using this scale, then divide by the number of classes.
The GPA would be 90.7. The letter grade assigned to that GPA would be dependent on the specific school and how they weigh their grades. For some schools it would equate to an A, while others an A-.
I've never heard of CPA, I've heard of GPA, but not CPA.
A C grade is equal to 2 GPA and a D grade is around 1.5 GPA. So you can calculate and find the average.
No official figure has been released, but the current 2009 season's team has the highest collective GPA for a Michigan Football team in the past 20 years, according to Athletic Director Bill Martin.

A 3.17 gpa
It depends on how many credits you had before. It's a simple equation, so you should be able to figure it out yourself:(2.12 * (number of credits you had before) + 3.08 * 12 ) / (number of credits you had before + 12)For example, if you had 12 credits before, your new GPA will be 2.60.
No. A 3.0 GPA is a B average. So it is a good GPA
this is the GPA you need to get a 2.0 GPA
I have a 9th grade daughter and gpa is 82.57142 what is that
you would have a 4.0 as the gpa
her GPA is 1.00
