Grades and Grade Point Averages (GPA)
Grades are assigned through application of standardized measurements rated by in letters (A to D), a range (example 1 to 6), a percentage of total number correct (example 70%), or as the number from of a possible total (example 50 out of 50). At predetermined set times through a school year, grades from subjects are averaged to give a Grade Point Average (GPA). The Cumulative Grade Point Average is the average of all grades over an educational life or specific for the total 4 years of high school.

Is a 3.87 GPA on a 5.0 grade scale a B average?
Typically 4.0 is the max. 5.0 is used at some high schools to allow room for extra credit, which would make a 3.87 an A. However, if 5.0 truly is the standard cap, than the following equation can be applied: 3.87 / 5 = 77.4; meaning either a 3.87 is either c+ or b-
Based on the following.
0.0 = F (failure)
1.0 = D (minimum pass, will not transfer)
2.0 = C (satisfactory or average)
3.0 = B (good, or above average)
4.0 = A (excellent)
Thus, a GPA of 3.5 would be equivalent to a B+. The GPA can be particular to a specific semester or cumulative. However, when calculating a semester GPA there are other factors involved to include the grade and the quality points assigned to that grade. Basically you add up the total quality points and divide that number by the number of credits taken during that semester.

You will need to get almost four times as many credits of straight As as you had already taken to get the 2.6 in order to bring the overall average up to 3.7.
Is a 2.89 or 2.95 GPA considered good or average?
This probably refers to a GPA. The most common scale in the US is the 4 point scale, where an A is worth 4 points, a B is worth 3 and so on. a 2.89 would be a B- average on this scale.
However, there are a number of other GPA scales that are commonly used. Without knowing the scale, the number is useless.
