For regular classes grades have points
A=4
B=3
C=2
D=1
For Honors classes you add half a point and for AP classes you add a full point
Then you calculate GPA in normal way.

What is a 4.80 in a grading scale?
You can achieve a 5.0 GPA with AP and Honors classes at many schools. The normal "perfect" GPA is a 4.0. Weighted classes (AP and Honors) can make your GPA higher than a perfect 4.0 if you make a B or higher in those classes. So, a 4.80 is a really great GPA. It's about the equivalent of an A+++ basically.
What is the needed GPA to get into Illinois University?

How will taking AP and honors classes weight your GPA if it was 2.8 and you take three AP and two honors courses?
AnswerHonors classes look great on a college application and expose you to a higher level of learning. If you are willing to do the extra work, an honors/AP class is the right place for you. The honors/AP classes are weighted higher so they will boost your grade up one letter score; the letter grade increase will be present in your GPA. When you take these classes colleges tend to pay more attention to you rather than other students affiliated with standard courses.
How can you get a 6.0 GPA?
In Frisco Independent School District, (and a few others) AP and honors classes are out of a 6.0, and regular classes are on a 5.0. For example, if you got a 100% in all your classes, and all your classes were AP classes, you would have a 6.0 GPA. However, if you had 90% in those same classes, you would have a 5.0 GPA, which is equivalent to having all 100% in regular/standard classes.
What is the highest GPA for AP classes?
An AP class is just the same as honors classes. An A is 5, B is 4, C is 3, and D is 2. So the highest a person can get taking all AP classes is 5.0 IDK if that answered your question. I really didnt understand it.
Can you get into Harvard with a 21 act score 3.85 GPA lots of honors and ap classes and a good amount of extracurricular activities?

Is a 3.34 GPA and a weighted 4.17 GPA a bad GPA. i took no AP classes or honors classes either. my weighted GPA is based on college prep courses. is that bad?
College prep courses are not weighted, so your gpa, both weighted and unweighted, is a 3.34. The only way to get above a 4.0 is to take either honors or AP classes. If its bad or not depends on what kind of school you want to go to, and remember, colleges don't only look at gpa, they also look at standardized test scores (SAT and ACT) and extracurriculars.
Can someone get higher then a 4.0 GPA?
yes, someone can. For example if someone is taking an honors class or an AP class then they receive an extra GPA point for an A in said class. So if a person took 3 honors classes and got A's in all of the classes, their GPA would be rounded to around a 4.3
Should I do AP/Honor or IB classes?
AP and Honors classes would be a great idea. Not only do they allow you to have a GPA above 4.0, they also work towards expensive college credit when you decide to go to college.
What are AP art classes?
Advanced/ Honors art classes
Does it look better to get a B in an AP-GT course or an A in an Honors course?
It is better to get a B in an AP class then an A in an Honors class, just as it is better to get a B in an Honors class then an A in a College Prep class. When colleges look at your application, they want to know that you are challenging yourself and taking hard classes, because they are essentially looking to see how well you will do in their school. AP classes are considered to be tougher then Honors classes, because AP classes are introductory college classes that are taken during high school- that's why some colleges give credit for a high enough AP test score. However, Honors classes are really just advanced high school classes. Grade reviews done for college entrance are done in an 'over-all' manner. The amount of honors classes taken will be noted and average GPA. Other classes will be looked at, and also that GPA. Individual classes are very seldom picked out to review grades, unless you are seeking to enter a very specialized field, and have taken many college prep classes in that area as honors classes. Most high schools do not offer enough 'specialized' prep classes for specific college interest.
